The earlier post:
Here’s a statement from Metro CEO Phil Washington:
“In consultation with Metro Board Chair James T. Butts and in response to L.A. Mayor Garcetti’s directive today to implement a curfew in downtown Los Angeles to help ensure public safety during the George Floyd protests, LA Metro is suspending bus and rail service in the affected protest areas to ensure the safety of both the public and LA Metro employees. This service suspension will become effective immediately and last until 5:30 a.m. tomorrow per curfew guidelines.”
The service plan for tonight at this time:
•Metro Bus will not be operating in downtown L.A. — specifically in the area north of Washington Boulevard, west of Alameda, east of the 110 freeway and south of Cesar Chavez. Bus lines will be detouring around the area. Metro Bus is also detouring around areas on the Westside,
•There will be no A (Blue) Line service between Grand/LATTC and 7th/Metro.
•There will be no E (Expo) Line service between LATTC/Ortho Institute and 7th/Metro.
•There will be no B/D (Red/Purple) Line service between Westlake/MacArthur Park and Union Station.
•There will be no L (Gold) Line service between Chinatown and Atlantic.
•The C (Green) Line will be operating between Norwalk and Aviation/LAX.
This is a fluid situation and could change. We’ll update this post as needed. For updates on service tonight, please follow @Metrolaalerts or @metrolosangeles on Twitter.
Effective 8pm tonight, there will be no Metro Rail service into DTLA. Multiple Metro Bus lines are also experiencing delays and rolling detours near Fairfax, East LA and DTLA areas.
