LADOT Electric Bus Maintenance Facility

LADOT Electric Bus Maintenance Facility

The City proposes to build an electric bus maintenance facility (EBMF) in the Southeast Los Angeles community to support its future electric bus fleet. The proposed EBMF will support up to 130 Battery-Electric Bus (BEB) vehicles. The City is in the process of purchasing the properties at 740 and 800 East 111th Place (the site) to use for construction of the EBMF. The EBMF would eventually replace the existing LADOT bus maintenance facility located approximately 2 miles to the south. Construction of the EBMF would require demolition of the existing buildings on the site. The new facility would include a two-story operation and maintenance building, bus maintenance bays, a service building, a bus wash building, the BEB parking/charging area, and a second-story parking deck with a photovoltaic (PV) system canopy. Electrification equipment, including electrical transformers, switch cabinets, and bus chargers, would also be installed. Property acquisition would be completed in early 2023, followed by the final engineering design. Construction is scheduled to begin in mid-2024 and be completed by mid-2026. During operations, approximately 312 employees would be working onsite, and the facility is planned to be open 24 hours per day, 7 days per week
