The extensive public transportation system in Los Angeles is getting better connectivity between its multiple transit rail lines.
Metro is building a rail line that will provide riders a seamless journey from Azusa to Long Beach, and from East Los Angeles to Santa Monica, through the downtown LA core. The project includes three new underground stations, and extends from the L Line (Gold) in Little Tokyo and Arts District communities to the A (Blue) and E (Expo) lines at 7th Street/Metro Center Station.
The project is located in Central Los Angeles and according to Metro.net, is designed to make it easier to ride across LA County, allowing passengers to travel between Azusa and Long Beach, and between East Los Angeles and Santa Monica, without transferring lines. It will improve connections, bringing together the Metro L (Gold), A (Blue), E (Expo), B (Red) and D (Purple) Lines at the 7th Street/Metro Center Station, and increase opportunities for jobs, education and essential services.
Project construction began in 2014 and it is slated to open for service in 2022. Tunneling work and construction on the Little Tokyo/Arts District Station, Historic Broadway Station and Grand Av Arts/Bunker Hill Station is 86% complete.
