L Line (Gold) Service Interruption

Starting October 24th, 2020 through early 2023, the Regional Connector’s work will permanently close the Little Tokyo/Arts District Station. A free bus shuttle will replace the L Line (Gold) service during the service interruption. The A, E and L lines are scheduled to begin using the new tunnels by early 2023.  Shuttles will serve Union Station, Little Tokyo/Arts District and Pico/Aliso stations in both directions.

As part of the final construction, the tracks from East LA and Azusa will both be connected to the tunnel. The current Little Tokyo/Arts District street-level station will be demolished and replaced by a new underground station. These updates are the beginning of greater connectivity for all Angelenos. The A, E and L Lines are scheduled to begin using the new tunnels by early 2023.
