LOS ANGELES (AP) — A proposal to build a gondola from downtown Los Angeles to Dodger Stadium hit some turbulence this week when the City Council voted overwhelmingly to urge transportation officials to ground the project. The estimated $500 million aerial tramway would connect fans between the stadium about a mile (1.6 km) away to Union Station, the heart of Los Angeles’ rail system. Supporters say the gondola would help fans of the World Series champions avoid nightmarish traffic.
