Public Scoping Meeting on the Metro C (Green) Line Extension
The following info below is directly from LA Metro. Myself and the City Council have already weighed in and will continue to do so as part of this scoping process in support of specific routes and/or mitigations to protect neighbors.
Metro has a plan for better transit in LA County — which includes the C Line (Green) Extension to Torrance. This project is an extension of light rail along a four-mile segment of the Harbor Subdivision Corridor from the existing Redondo Beach Station to the proposed Regional Transit Center (RTC) in Torrance, served by the Metro C (Green) and future Crenshaw/LAX Transit project.
This extension will provide an alternative to crowded I-405 freeway and better connect southwestern LA County into the regional rail network through connections to the Metro A (Blue) and E (Expo) Lines.
The C Line (Green) Extension to Torrance project aims to:
- Improve mobility in the South Bay by introducing frequent, reliable transit service to meet growing transportation needs
- Provide more direct connections from the South Bay to regional destinations
- Provide an alternative mode of transportation for commuters currently using congested arterials and I-405 in the project study area
- Improve transit accessibility for South Bay community residents
- Reduce air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions by making transit a more viable transportation choice.
Metro invites you to a virtual scoping meeting or online presentation on your own time to learn more about the project and provide your comments. The meetings are being held to inform the public that Metro prepared a Notice of Preparation (NOP) and to solicit public comment during a review period from January 29, 2021 to March 15, 2021.
