The Expo Line is a light-rail line that runs between Downtown Los Angeles and Santa Monica. The line is named after Exposition Boulevard, which it runs alongside for most of its route.[3][4] It is one of the six lines in the Metro Rail system, and is operated by the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro).


The Expo Line largely follows the right-of-way of the former Pacific Electric Santa Monica Air Line. Passenger service ended in 1953; freight-only service ended by March 1988. Several Expo Line stations are built in the same location as Air Line stations, although no original station structures have been reused.[5]

Service description




Route and stations of the Expo Line, relative to other Metro lines. Under construction or planned segment are shown as dashed lines.



Construction


An independent agency, the Exposition Metro Line Construction Authority, was given the authority to plan, design, and construct the line by state law in 2003. After construction was completed, the line was handed over on January 15, 2016, to the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority for testing and operation.[6]


The line was built in two phases; the first phase comprised the 8.6-mile (13.8 km)[2][7] section between Downtown Los Angeles and Culver City. Construction began in early 2006 and most stations opened to the public on April 28, 2012.[7][8] The Culver City and Farmdale stations opened on June 20, 2012.[7][9]


Design and construction on the 6.6-mile (10.6 km)[2] portion between Culver City and Santa Monica started in September 2011. Testing along the phase 2 segment began on April 6, 2015,[10] and the segment opened on May 20, 2016.[11]



Hours of operation


The Expo Line operates from approximately 4:30 a.m. to 2:00 a.m. on weekdays and until 2:30 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays.[12]



Headways


As of December 2016, trains run approximately every 6 minutes during peak hours, every 12 minutes during middays, every 10 minutes during the evening, and every 20 minutes after midnight.



Speed


Maximum speed on the route is 55 mph (89 km/h): speeds within the city of Los Angeles are reduced.[13]



History





Train in Santa Monica, 1894


The Expo Line largely follows right of way used by the Los Angeles and Independence Railroad steam railroad, built in 1875[14], which was converted by Pacific Electric to electric traction and operated as the Santa Monica Air Line[15] by 1920, providing both freight and passenger service between Los Angeles and Santa Monica. Passenger service stopped in 1953 and diesel-powered freight deliveries ended in 1988.[16] Local advocacy groups including Friends 4 Expo Transit[17] supported the successful passage of Proposition C in 1990, which allowed the purchase of the entire right-of-way from Southern Pacific by Metro.


Metro released a Major Investment Study in 2000 which compared bus rapid transit and light rail transit options along what was now known as the "Mid-City/Exposition Corridor";[18] construction of the first phase to Culver City began in mid-2006,[19][7][8][7][9] and most stations opened to the public on April 28, 2012.[7][8] The Culver City and Farmdale stations opened on June 20, 2012.[7][9]


Design and construction of the 6.6-mile (10.6 km)[2] portion between Culver City and Santa Monica started in September 2011. Testing along the phase 2 segment began on April 6, 2015,[20] and the segment opened on May 20, 2016.[11]



Proposed developments



Regional Connector Transit Corridor



The Regional Connector Transit Corridor (also known as the Regional Connector, Downtown Connector or Downtown Light-Rail Connector) is an under-construction light-rail subway corridor through Downtown Los Angeles that is to connect the current Blue and Expo Lines to the current Gold Line, and to allow a seamless one-seat ride between the Blue and Expo lines' current 7th Street/Metro Center terminus and Union Station.[21]


Once the Regional Connector Transit Corridor is completed, the Eastside leg of the Gold Line will be connected to the Expo Line. At the same time, the northern leg of the Gold Line through the San Gabriel Valley will be joined with the current Blue Line connecting Downtown Los Angeles and Long Beach, creating what will be the longest light-rail transit line in the United States. Names and/or colors for these new lines have not yet been officially announced, but it seems likely that the current Expo Line-eastern leg of the Gold Line will become the new Gold Line, and the Blue Line-northern leg of the Gold Line will become the new Blue Line.[22] Under a proposed system in which each Metro rail and BRT line would be assigned a letter and a color, the current Expo Line and the southern leg of the current Gold Line would be combined into the gold-colored Line E, retaining elements of the identities of both current lines.[23][24] The groundbreaking for the construction of the Regional Connector Transit Corridor took place on September 30, 2014, and the alignment is expected to be in public service by late 2021.[25]



The New Blue Closure


The Blue Line Shuttle that will connect the with the Expo Line.

By the summer of 2019, the northern half of the Metro Blue Line will be closed. The Expo Line will be affected for 3 weeks and will terminate at 23rd Street.[26]

Operations



Maintenance facilities


Previously, the light rail vehicles used on the Expo Line were maintained at the division 11 yard in Long Beach, California, the same maintenance facility that is used by the Blue Line. However, the new division 14 yard, located east of Stewart Street and north of Exposition Boulevard[28][29] in the vicinity of the 26th Street/Bergamot station in Santa Monica, was opened with the completion of Phase 2.



Rolling stock



Compatible with the rest of Metro's light-rail network, the Expo Line shares standard Metro light rail vehicles (Nippon Sharyo P865 and P2020, and Siemens P2000) with the Blue Line. Metro estimates that it has 47 light rail cars to provide service on the Expo Line under the peak-hour assumption of 3-car trains running at 6-minute headways.


Upon completion of Phase 2, it is expected that new P3010 light rail vehicles (LRVs) from Kinki Sharyo,[30] that were ordered by the L.A. Metro board of directors in 2012,[31] will begin operation, replacing the current LRVs in operation on the Expo Line.



Bikeway


The Expo Line Bikeway parallels the route of the light rail line, and includes a mixture of bike lanes on Exposition Boulevard and off-street paths alongside the rail tracks.[32]



Incidents


On March 28, 2015, an Expo Line train collided with an automobile at an intersection, injuring 12.[citation needed]
