Across California, people in metropolitan areas are facing an acute housing shortage, driving up rental prices and pushing home ownership further and further out of reach. To achieve state climate goals of reducing greenhouse gas emissions, housing advances must be coupled with transportation approaches that ensure new housing development does not continue to favor car-based mobility. This year’s InterActions LA event will discuss the past and future housing and transportation goals, building on panels from the 2022 UCLA Arrowhead Symposium: California’s Housing Crossroads.

InterActions LA will include presentations and discussions covering legislative updates, research, case studies, and organizing approaches. As California continues to invest significant time in advancing housing legislation and large amounts of financial resources in transportation, what are these investments yielding in terms of results, and what still needs to be done? In particular, we will discuss challenges and solutions around the most promising recent legislative efforts at the state, regional, and local levels. What are the limitations of state-led planning on advancing housing and transportation goals? What are harmonious approaches?
