A's ballpark plans face criticism and setbacks.

The Oakland Athletics have commissioned a traffic study to increase travel in the area surrounding the Tropicana site, where the team would build a $1.5 billion, 30,000-seat ballpark if their public funding bill is approved. The plan includes multimodal options such as ride-hailing companies, walking, and a game-day bus service. The Boring Company’s planned Vegas Loop already has land-use approval for the Tropicana site, allowing local fans to park at various resorts and for visitors at those properties to travel to and from the stadium via the underground transportation system. The traffic plan notes that the stadium would be heavily supported by fans walking to and from the stadium from the various surrounding resorts.
