Overview

Metro, in coordination with the City of Los Angeles, is conducting a transit study to evaluate ways to improve north-south transit opportunities in the east San Fernando Valley that offer connections to the regional transportation network.

In October 2011, a series of community meetings were held introducing this transit study which initially included only the Van Nuys Bl. corridor, between Ventura Bl and I-210. At the three meetings held in Van Nuys, Panorama City and Pacoima, comments were made urging Metro and the City to expand the corridor study area beyond Van Nuys Bl.

You spoke, we listened!

We are pleased to announce that Metro has now incorporated your recommendations into an expanded and newly named “East San Fernando Valley Transit Corridor” study. The Project Study Area has now been expanded to include Sepulveda Bl. and the Sylmar/San Fernando Metrolink Station as a northern terminus/origination point.

The Van Nuys and Sepulveda Bl. Corridors run through the heart of the eastern San Fernando Valley and connect diverse communities to their destinations every day. Both corridors are home to several destinations including schools, hospitals, large employers, the Van Nuys Civic Center, Auto Row, Sherman Oaks Galleria, and various shops and restaurants.
