Metro Backs $6M Plan to Move Commerce Metrolink Stop to Pico Rivera

The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority Board of Directors voted unanimously Thursday to approve a motion aimed at relocating the Commerce Metrolink station to Pico Rivera, a move that could finally give the city a stop on a rail line that has rolled past it for years without ever picking up a passenger. The board also directed Metro to provide up to $6 million in seed funding for preliminary engineering and environmental review work, with the California High-Speed Rail Authority expected to reimburse Metro for that funding.

Blast Damage Adds New Setback for LAX's $3.34 Billion People Mover

LOS ANGELES - Three "blast incidents" on the LAX people mover guideway damaged the system's power rail and guide beam during a late-September ramp-up ahead of testing, according to a new project report. The cause remains unknown and investigations are ongoing. The report says the guide beam has been repaired, but power-rail reassembly is still underway with no confirmed timeline. The damage lands as contractor LAX Integrated Express Solutions, or LINXS, projects passenger service could begin Feb. 5, 2027. That is a contractor forecast, not an opening date announced by Los Angeles World Airports. LAWA's SkyLink page says the system remains in final testing and certification. Before passengers can board, the 2.25-mile elevated train must complete 30 consecutive days of successful testing, undergo an independent review and receive final safety approvals. LINXS had previously projected passenger service would begin Jan. 6, 2027, if it met a Dec. 8 construction-completion deadline and cleared required testing, according to a Sept. 24 Westside Current report . The line was originally expected to open in 2023. It is intended to connect airport terminals with parking, pickup and drop-off areas, the LAX Rental Car Center and Metro's LAX/Metro Transit Center. Instead, the project has become

Opinion: No Alternative to Metrolink

Metrolink is facing imminent service cuts as soon as November 16th. These cuts would cut weekday service by 22% on the IE/OC line, 14% on the 91/Perris Valley Line, and 36% on the San Bernardino Line. These cuts will make it harder to ride, reduce ridership, and potentially beget more cuts next year, threatening Metrolink’s very future.
