Construction activities continue to progress on the Regional Connector Transit Project. As part of the Federal governments Coronavirus Guidance for America, transportation infrastructure is considered an Essential Critical Infrastructure. Metros contractors are following safety precautions during the pandemic, including implementing social distancing when applicable and the use of masks and other PPE.

The above video shows some of the construction work thats taken place in DTLA recently. As you can see, the Little Tokyo/Arts District Station for the project is being built underground, which means the existing aboveground station, currently served by the L Line (Gold), will eventually be demolished as we near completion of the project. This station work is being completed ahead of the upcoming L Line (Gold) closure + bus shuttle activity set to take place this fall. We will have more information on that in the coming weeks.

The Regional Connector is a pair of 1.9-mile rail transit tunnels under downtown Los Angeles that will tie together the A Line (Blue), E Line (Expo) and L Line (Gold) to provide faster trips to and through DTLA with fewer transfers for riders. The project is scheduled to open in 2022. You can view additional project updates hereand sign up for email notifications.
