The Beverly Hills City Council and Parking Authority met on Jan. 9 to address several key issues, including updates from the police department and public works department, as well as plans concerning One Beverly Hills and the potential impact of the 2026 World Cup.
Although the emergent weather conditions were a key topic of discussion, the council approved the adoption of an encroachment permit and covenant with BH Luxury Residences LLC, owner of the property located at 9900 Wilshire Boulevard. This allows a temporary pedestrian bridge to encroach over North Santa Monica Boulevard to facilitate construction of the $2 billion One Beverly Hills project. Construction professionals currently use the crosswalk at the intersection of Santa Monica Boulevard and Wilshire Boulevard to reach the One Beverly Hills construction site from the temporary construction office location. The installation of the proposed pedestrian bridge will facilitate faster, safer and more efficient access to the construction site for these professionals.
