The A’s are getting creative in their endeavor to not only build a new ballpark, but to get passengers from downtown Oakland to the stadium’s front doors.
Who’s up for a gondola ride?
Per the San Francisco Chronicle, one idea the A’s have for moving fans from downtown Oakland to a stadium at Howard Terminal would be to ferry them via an elevated gondola similar to what you might see at a ski resort.
“You have to be creative in how you approach these problems in the modern era, where you have transportation gridlock,” A’s president Dave Kaval told the Chronicle.
