The Sepulveda Transit Corridor is a proposed high-capacity rail line that will provide a crucial north-south transit connection between the San Fernando Valley, the Westside and eventually Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) to address one of the most heavily traveled and congested corridors in Los Angeles County.  

 In January 2026, the Metro Board selected the Locally Preferred Alternative (LPA), an underground heavy rail line between the Van Nuys Metrolink Station and E Line Expo/Sepulveda Station that connects to the G Line on Van Nuys Boulevard. Key project benefits of the LPA include fast travel times, strong regional connectivity and stations at major destinations. More information about the LPA can be found inthese FAQs.   

With the LPA now approved, staff can begin refining the project’s design, including evaluating project phasing strategies, defining an updated maintenance and storage facility approach, identifying value-engineering opportunities, further assessing a Public Private Partnership (P3) delivery approach, and refining design elements to improve connectivity, including the G Line interface in Van Nuys.  

The environmental review process will continue, along with ongoing community outreach and additional opportunities for public input.
