A new Metro rail station will open near Los Angeles International Airport on Sunday, prompting a change in service for passengers who utilize the Metro C Line through the area and the South Bay.
With the opening of the Aviation/Century Station -- at the intersection of Aviation and Century boulevards -- the station will become the western terminus of the C Line. The westbound line previously continued south through El Segundo to Redondo Beach.The four South Bay stations -- Mariposa, El Segundo, Douglas and Redondo Beach -- will now become part of the Metro K Line.
The K Line will continue to have a rail gap between the Aviation/Century Station and the existing Westchester/Veterans Station, due to continuing construction on the LAX/Metro Transit Center Station between the two and near the airport. Until that station opens, passengers on the K Line will have to rely on shuttle buses to carry them through the area. Shuttle buses run every 10 minutes during the day and every 20 minutes in the evenings.
The northern segment of the K Line currently runs between the Westchester/Veterans Station and the E Line at Crenshaw Boulevard.Get Los Angeles's latest local news on crime, entertainment, weather, schools, COVID, cost of living and more.
