As has happened more than once, there was that sinking feeling when at arriving at the platform the Expo Line is pulling away. Then, at the 7th Street Station, disembark from the subway, furtively look for the signs for the correct platform for the Expo Line, scurry up stairs and look for the Expo Line. Many times I have walked quickly down the hill from Disney Hall to the First Street Civic Center Station, scurry down the escalators, or the long flight of stairs when an escalator is out of service, quickly pay with the TAP card, scurry down a shorter flight of stairs, and then at the platform have the subway I need back to the 7th Street Station pull out of the station.Īt night this wait can be up to around twenty minutes. Depending on the time of day or night, the wait can be a few minutes to nearly an hour late at night. Transit riders knows the sinking feeling of arriving at a light rail or subway station, or bus stop, and have the train or bus pull out. To get to Disney Hall I would transfer from the E Expo Line to either the Red or Purple Line to get to the Civic Center Station from where I would walk to Disney Hall, The Colburn School, the Broad Museum and elsewhere.Īny transfer between trains, buses, or bus to trains are a time sensitive endeavor. Both R and Purple Lines share tracks and stations for 7th Street / Metro Center Pershing Square Grand Park / Civic Center and Union Station. Most times I would be going to Walt Disney Concert Hall or the Music Center. to get to most of the DTLA designations by transit I would need to get off at the 7th Street Station, and then hurriedly go downstairs, after using my TAP card, to transfer to a Red or Purple Line subway.
If needed, the transit rider can still exit at the busy 7th Street Metro Station, or very importantly, just stay in their seat and pass the station to other designations. The Regional Connector eliminates the additional, time wasting transfer between the A and E Lines upstairs to the Red or Purple Line subways downstairs at the 7th Street Metro Center Station.

While not easy change, for this transit rider the costs and wait are worthwhile.Ī series of underground rail lines will carry the A Line and Expo Lines through what are probably the most used sections of DTLA for business, commerce, government agencies, arts and entertainment and tourists-locals and out-of-towners. The $1.8-billion project was three years behind schedule and $335-million over budget. The Regional Connector opened June 16, 2023. The light rail lines affected are the L-Gold line, which is eliminated, and taken over by the E Expo Line, and the A Line.
