A Day Without Public Works

“A Day Without Public Works,” is a ten-minute, lighthearted but thought-provoking video mockumentary about Los Angeles’ infrastructure that demonstrates the value of public works in the daily lives of Angelenos and delivers the message that support for infrastructure spending is critical to accommodate aging systems and the growing population. “A Day Without Public Works” seeks to educate residents and business owners about the need to upgrade and maintain sewers, streets, streetlights, urban forest, storm drains, and other systems to enhance and protect the quality of life in Los Angeles. The video presentation evolved from The Department of Public Works’ highly successful infrastructure awareness campaign, “Below It, On It, Above It.”
