Wooden sidewalk cover has been taken down at Van Nuys Station construction. My gut feeling is not there's enough space under this bridge to add portals for a seamless connection between the G and Sepulveda Lines - not quite as confident for Sepulveda <-> ESFV

Letting myself be an optimist again

You sometimes begin to wonder why DSA LA isn't doing the easiest thing in the world and flooding Neighborhood Councils with slates

Imagine if Metro had to beg Long Beach and San Fernando and each neighborhood in LA for operating funding every year? If Long Beach could decide to fund Metro less, but demand to maintain A line service? That's the situation Metrolink is in every year.

@metrolosangeles.bsky.social this sign is on the wrong side :( at W/Fairfax

the busted sidewalk at vanowen/van nuys has created a sort of level boarding situation

Schedule for the @metrolosangeles.bsky.social D Line opening Phase 1 is out. Disappointed to see 10 min frequencies instead of the 5 min we were promised - hoping this is just temporary til the Division 20 project finishes. cdn.beta.metro.net/wp-content/u...

Given the state of Metrolink, I really think any candidate for LA Mayor who really cares about transit needs to be saying something yesterday. Especially - frequent AV & VC Line service is a critical part of any city infrastructure plan, we can't be reducing that now.

it must rule to be my friend. playing overwatch at 1am when i drop into the voice call, drunk and ranting about how the best report that there will ever be about this horrifying extortion was written by mental five year olds

Work continues on the Van Nuys G Line Station Improvements

Earlier this week, my mom got lost and missed her bus when her phone was telling her to take the G Line. Even though Metro changed from line colors to letters 6 years ago, all the signs at North Hollywood still call it the Orange Line so she had no idea where to go!

all sorts of excitement on my cross-valley quest to collect library stamps

@metrolosangeles.bsky.social hi, are there diagrams available for where replacement buses will stop at each of these stations? (Also, a resource like this - at.govt.nz/bus-train-fe... - showing layouts at all stations would be very nice for people trying to plan trips!)

My generation grew up with Blippi. Your generation grew up with Bluey. We are not the same.

@metrolosangeles.bsky.social i fear somebody was asleep at the wheel when deciding which way this was gonna face (at valley college stn)

It's kinda insane how everybody, in trying to not be racist, ends up racistly mispronouncing Nithya Raman's name

This will be the most important transit news of 2026 in the entire country. I don't think there's any other way to look at it

@metrolosangeles.bsky.social - hi, did you guys ever retime the 234 to account for bus lane time savings? Was just on a southbound bus that had to *crawl* down Sepulveda - as in 5mph, waiting at stops for a full min - because it was like 8 min ahead of timepoint. Seems bad for customers & for budget

Look, it's how I'm finally gonna get my friends to come to CicLAvia with me so I can't complain

cool crossover incoming

G Line bridge frame is all the way across Van Nuys now

Little thread of my notes on LA's first draft SB 79 map

@metrolosangeles.bsky.social how does this happen

@metrolosangeles.bsky.social is there a reason why the G Line just forgets to start its trips like 50% of the time by the way

@metrolosangeles.bsky.social a question because I'm bored. Would it be possible to run 3-car service on the C/K Lines and only open the middle 8 doors at the 2-car stations (Imperial, Mariposa, Douglas, Redondo)? Similar to how only some doors open at Long Beach? Please excuse my low quality sketch.

Finally got the chance to look at the amendments. The planned stop stuff is really bad, I don't think "we can build housing around train stops that won't be operational for 12 years" is a good tradeoff for "we won't get to build housing near most future train stops that aren't identified by Jan 1"

@metrolosangeles.bsky.social have been thinking about this recently. i know the 10 min service got delayed - i think due to HR4000s taking a while to arrive? and was wondering if 10/10 service is in the plans once the D Line reopens. seems there'd be enough 4000s now?

hey asked staff about this. answer: yes, still could happen but not quite there yet. long story short: nextgen called for us replacing Line 92 owl with other service - -but ridership stayed high on 92 and we kept owl. So looking for resources to add owl on 94.

marines guarding the passport office might be the single corniest thing I've ever seen

@metrolosangeles.bsky.social is owl 94 ever gonna happen :(

Think tomorrow's a Metro Speedrun day. If any followers want to turn up at Chatsworth Station at 6AM to join you're welcome just DM me first

homeless guy asked me for a cigarette (no, i don't smoke) then spent five minutes telling me about how i'm such a handsome young man and it's crazy i don't have a girlfriend because the women should be falling all over me. that i'm gonna find myself a fine ass woman. hugged me goodbye

sidewalks under 15 feet are actually a major accessibility issue for people like me who walk fast and are a little shy because passing people walking too slow can be kinda awkward :(

In Fred Rosen's latest screed of nonsense against the Sepulveda Line he comes out on attack against a bizarre target: women with hyphenated names? You tell 'em, Fred!

What is Riveriera Village

@metrolosangeles.bsky.social noticing that www.metro.net/riding/guide... still doesn't have LAX/MTC maps posted - simple oversight? or waiting for june shakeup maps to be finalized maybe?

mexico appears to have forcibly annexed the once and future Van Nuys Station site

Preparation for an event of some kind at Van Nuys G line station (image via @flanl3.bsky.social, thank you for catching this)
