Metro has a plan to help our communities thrive. It includes creating quieter neighborhoods through our soundwall program for LA County residents living in areas of high traffic.

Soundwall Package 10 is part of the Metro Countywide Soundwall Program which is being funded by Federal and Measure R funds. Caltrans designed the project and Metro will construct the project. For more information on Metro’s Highway Soundwall Program, please visit metro.net/soundwalls.

Metro will construct over 16,000 feet of new masonry soundwalls of between roughly 14-16 feet in 11 segments at three locations:

SR-134 in Toluca Lake (150 feet East of Placidia Av to Sancola Av)
I-210 in Pasadena (Fair Oaks Av to Wilson Av)
I-210 in Arcadia (Baldwin Av to 500 feet east of Santa Anita Av)

Construction is scheduled through early 2026.
