North San Fernando Valley Transit Corridor Project
Metro has a plan to make it easier to get around LA, with better transit across the North Valley. The North San Fernando Valley Transit Corridor Project will improve east-west transit service with better access to jobs, education and essential services. This new approach, called the BRT Network Improvements, is the result of extensive outreach and Metro Board direction following prior studies and completion of an Alternatives Analysis for a single-line Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) project in 2019. Some of the features of the BRT Network Improvements would include: > More frequent service with 10-minute weekday service on Roscoe Bl and Nordhoff St > Enhanced bus stop amenities at five key transfer locations > New bus shelters at nearly 400 locations > New bus bulbs at approximately 80 locations > Peak-hour bus-only lanes in segments of Roscoe Bl where parking is already restricted > Transit signal priority added for up to seven bus lines > Electric buses with all door boarding Join us at the upcoming Metro Planning and Programming Committee and Board meetings. The project will be on the agenda for review and approval at these meetings. The item will be heard at the Planning and Programming Committee meeting on Wednesday, November 16, 2022, starting at 10:30am, and at the Metro Board of Directors regular meeting on Thursday, December 1, 2022, starting at 10:00am. Staff will present the project and BRT Network Improvements recommendation.
