East San Fernando Valley Light Rail Transit Project
Metro’s plan for better transit includes more rail service in the heart of the San Fernando Valley.


Metro is building a new 6.7-mile light rail line with 11 stations along Van Nuys Boulevard from the G Line to San Fernando Road. This project improves access to jobs, schools, healthcare, and key destinations, while reducing emissions. A potential northern extension to the Sylmar/San Fernando Metrolink Station is also under study.
