The so-called Sombrita, which cost $10,000, is essentially a pole with a lip that provides some shade, or a solar-powered light at night-time.
The Sombrita is around 18 inches wide and barely provides enough shade for two people even when the sun is at the right angle.
According to images posted online, the light at night also leaves the pavement below almost pitch-black, illuminating only the upper portion of the pole.
The Los Angeles Department of Transportation said the 6,000 new shelters for
stops with narrow pavements were vital to protect women using the transport network and hailed it as “low cost” infrastructure.
“The lack of essential amenities like shade and lighting isn't just a simple inconvenience. For women and gender minorities — half of our population — it can change the trajectory of their lives,” said Chelina Odbert, founding principal of the Kounkuey Design Initiative, which developed the structures with input from female transit riders.
