Metro Service On C Line At Redondo Beach, Crenshaw Stations To Pause On Saturday
LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) — The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority announced that C Line service will be interrupted between the Crenshaw and Redondo Beach stations on Saturday.
Service will be stopped temporarily at 5 a.m. on Saturday until the end of service.
The closure will allow crews to connect the Crenshaw/LAX Transit Project to a section of the C Line.
While service is paused, free bus shuttles will take passengers between the stations. Service between Norwalk Station and Crenshaw Station will not be impacted during the closure.
The LAX shuttle that runs between the Aviation/LAX Station and the airport will continue on its regular schedule during the construction.
Crews will be conducting track maintenance and system improvements as part of the Crenshaw/LAX Transit Project, which will extend light-rail transit service about 8 1/2 miles from the E Line and merge it with the C line at the Aviation/LAX Station.
According to L.A. Metro's website, the project is expected to be completed this year.
