Metro has completed the Alternatives Analysis (AA) study that evaluates potential alternatives for the second phase of the Metro Gold Line Eastside Extension. The goal of the proposed study is to improve mobility in the corridor by connecting to communities further east of Los Angeles.
Communities in the study area include: Bell, Commerce, Downey, El Monte, Industry, Los Angeles, Montebello, Monterey Park, Pico Rivera, Rosemead, Santa Fe Springs, South El Monte, Whittier and the unincorporated portions of LA County.
Facts about the Eastside Transit Corridor Phase 2:
- Metro is recommending the advancement of two light rail transit (LRT) alternatives into the Draft Environmental Impact Statement/Draft Environmental Impact Report (Draft EIS/EIR) for further technical and environmental review
- The two light rail alternatives are: State Route 60 and Washington Bl
- In addition, Metro will also study a No Build Alternative and a Transportation Systems Management (TSM) Alternative (i.e. service improvements to existing bus lines) in the Draft EIS/EIR
- The Beverly Boulevard and Beverly/Whittier Boulevards alternatives will not be recommended for further study
