While some 00:04:31.839 --> 00:04:34.399 residents argue the barriers protect cyclists, 00:04:34.519 --> 00:04:37.019 the city plans to remove them later this summer, 00:04:37.139 --> 00:04:41.199 with estimated removal costs around $500 ,000. 00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:51.379 Now on to sports.

Since August 00:06:03.040 --> 00:06:06.620 2006, shoes have been removed to enhance security 00:06:06.620 --> 00:06:10.040 against explosive threats, a policy stemming 00:06:10.040 --> 00:06:12.560 from a failed terror plot involving the shoe 00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:15.699 bomber. Travelers should await official guidance 00:06:15.699 --> 00:06:18.339 regarding this significant potential shift in 00:06:18.339 --> 00:06:24.019 security procedures.

Since December, at least 00:06:34.740 --> 00:06:37.600 one Chinese -owned company has played a key role 00:06:37.600 --> 00:06:40.240 in this transhipment of minerals, which includes 00:06:40.240 --> 00:06:43.199 antimony, a critical material used in batteries 00:06:43.199 --> 00:06:46.939 and electronics.
