Overview


The Metro Crenshaw/LAX Transit Corridor Project will extend from the existing Metro Exposition Line at Crenshaw and Exposition Bls. The Line will travel 8.5 miles to the Metro Green Line’s Aviation/LAX Station and will serve the cities of Los Angeles, Inglewood, Hawthorne and El Segundo; and portions of unincorporated Los Angeles County. The project includes 6 stations and 2 optional stations: Crenshaw/ Exposition, Crenshaw/ Martin Luther King Jr., Leimert Park (optional), Crenshaw/ Slauson, Florence/ West, Hindry (optional), and Aviation/ Century.

The new Metro Rail extension will offer an alternative transportation option to congested roadways and provide significant environmental benefits, economic development and employment opportunities throughout Los Angeles County. Riders will be able to make easy connections within the entire Metro Rail system, municipal bus lines and other regional transportation services.

The project purpose is to improve public transit service and mobility in the Crenshaw Corridor between Wilshire and El Segundo Bls. The overall goal of the proposed project is to improve mobility in the corridor by connecting with existing lines such as the Metro Green Line and the Expo Line.

The project budget is approximately $1.7 billion with the majority of funding coming from Measure R, the half-cent sales tax initiative approved by Los Angeles County voters in November 2008.

The Crenshaw/ LAX Transit Corridor Project is scheduled to open in late 2018.
