Advanced Transportation Management System (ATMS) technology makes Metro the operator of one of the "smartest" and most "feature packed" bus fleets in the world.

With eight new stations serving such diverse neighborhoods as the Arts District, Little Tokyo and Boyle Heights, the Edward R. Roybal Metro Gold Line Extension connects the Eastside by rail to Downtown LA, Pasadena, San Fernando Valley, South Bay, Long Beach and other points.

Metro has joined with the California High-Speed Rail Authority and several other federal and state agencies to manage the $8 billion in American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 development funds earmarked for a sophisticated, state-wide High-Speed Rail (HSR) system.
The Metro Rapid Program was implemented to address the issues raised in a study showing that half the time a bus is in service, it's either stopped at a red light or at a bus stop to accommodate passengers.

Metro Silver Line connects the South Bay and the San Gabriel Valley with Downtown L.A. seven days-a-week service every 5-10 minutes during weekday rush hours.
