On June 16, 2023, we’ll be celebrating the opening of three new Metro rail stations in downtown LA, with the completion of the Regional Connector Transit Project.
We’re combining the A, E and L Lines into two rail lines — the new A and E Lines. That means more direct rides between Azusa, East LA and beaches — connecting our riders to many of the places they want to be.
Ride Metro bus, rail and Bike Share for free during opening weekend.
When new service opens, the A Line will provide a transfer-free ride between Long Beach and Azusa, via three shiny new downtown stations.
The E Line will change to a new gold color, and will provide faster, transfer-free rides between Santa Monica and East LA. The E Line will deliver you to the Santa Monica Pier, Disney Hall and other DTLA attractions, and vibrant shops and restaurants in East LA.
(And other important changes to note.)
The part of the current L Line between Little Tokyo/Arts District Station and APU/Citrus College Station will become part of the A Line. The part of the L Line between Little Tokyo/Arts District Station and Atlantic Station will become part of the E Line. The color for this part of the line will remain gold.
And good news: once the new service opens, the L Line Shuttle will go away. The new A Line will connect Union Station and Little Tokyo/Arts District Station.
Let’s stay connected
