Metro has plans to connect more of the South Bay by extending the C Line (Green) from Redondo Beach Station to the new Torrance Transit Center. This project would bring light rail to the South Bay to provide alternatives to traffic along the I-405 Freeway corridor, with connections to the A (Blue) and E (Expo) Lines.
Metro is currently in the environmental review process, studying two potential route options through Redondo Beach, Lawndale and Torrance.
Explore segments of the right-of-way (ROW) and Hawthorne Bl from the comfort of your home on a virtual self-guided neighborhood walk. The interactive maps of each neighborhood walk include videos with audio descriptions of proposed elements at key points along each route.
Scoping meetings took place in early 2021 and we anticipate releasing a Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR) in Fall 2022 for public review and comment. The Final Environmental Impact Report is expected in Winter/Spring 2024.
This project is slated to begin construction in 2026 and open for service in 2030-33.
