The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) will host two virtual community meetings June 16 and 21 to discuss initial refinements to the route alternatives for the Crenshaw Northern Extension Project and encourages public participation and input.
The Crenshaw Northern Extension will extend the Crenshaw/LAX light rail line north to the D Line (Purple) subway on Wilshire Boulevard and then continue to the B Line (Red) subway in Hollywood. Metro is currently drafting the project’s Environmental Impact Report (EIR) based on the feedback received during the scoping period in spring 2021.
The meetings will use the same Zoom link and will be held on the following dates and times:
- Thursday, June 16
Noon to 2 p.m.
Zoom meeting link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83798019843
- Tuesday, June 21
6 to 8 p.m.
Zoom meeting link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83798019843
Each meeting will use the same presentation. Simultaneous Spanish translation and interpretation services are available.
The three routes under study follow busy travel corridors, serve major destinations and employment centers, and intersect with five of the busiest bus routes in the region. The routes will follow parts of San Vicente Boulevard, Fairfax Avenue or La Brea Avenue.
Under the Measure M schedule, the project is slated to begin construction in 2041 and begin service in 2047. Metro, in partnership with the cities of West Hollywood and Los Angeles, are advancing the planning work to potentially accelerate the project.
