Document Description
Other: Federal Railroad Administration
Metro is proposing the project to transform Los Angeles Union Station from a "stub-end tracks station" into a "run-through tracks station" while increasing operational capacity to meet the demands of the broader rail system. The project would include the construction of new run-through tracks over US-101, a new passenger concourse, and an elevated rail yard that would include new boarding platforms and overhead canopies. Metro is also working with California High-Speed Rail Authority to potentially accommodate high-speed rail within the limits of Link US. The project would also require: modifications to existing bridges; modifications to local streets; communications-related improvements; modifications to existing mainline tracks; additional right-of-way; and utility relocations, replacements, and abandonments.
