Service Advisory: Metro C Line Overhead Wire Replacement Project

July 15, 2024

    Hi Mooviters,

    Heads up, C Line riders, yesterday Metro began Phase 2 of the C Line overhead wire replacement project for the east end of the C Line between Willowbrook/Rosa Parks Station and Norwalk Station. The changes are necessary to allow staff access to one of the two operating tracks to complete the replacement of overhead wires that provide the power supply for each train. The current wires are approaching 30 years and need to be replaced to ensure reliable service. 

    C Line service changes to accommodate this work are as follows: 

    • Sunday, July 14 through Saturday, August 17, 2024
      C Line service will operate every 20 minutes on weekdays, Saturdays, and Sundays between Norwalk Station and Redondo Beach Station. Additional trains will operate between Willowbrook/Rosa Parks Station and Redondo Beach Station weekdays between 5 a.m. and 8:30 a.m. and between 2 p.m. and 6:30 p.m.
    • Sunday, August 18 through Saturday, August 24, 2024
      A bus bridge will operate between Norwalk Station and Long Beach Blvd. Station (also serving Lakewood Blvd. Station) to replace C Line rail service. 12-minute rail service frequency will operate between Long Beach Blvd. Station and Redondo Beach Station. 
    • Sunday, August 25 through Sunday, October 27, 2024
      C Line service will operate every 15 minutes on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays between Norwalk Station and Redondo Beach Station.  Additional trains will operate between Willowbrook/Rosa Parks Station and Redondo Beach Station weekdays between 6 a.m. and 8:30 a.m. and between 2 p.m. and 6:30 p.m.  
    • Monday, October 28, 2024 through Monday, January 27, 2025
      Normal 10-minute C Line service frequency will operate between Norwalk Station and Redondo Beach Station. At a date yet to be confirmed during this period, a new structure for the C and K Lines will be launched as Metro prepares to open the new LAX/Metro Transit Center Station.
