BACKGROUND

The Project is a light rail system that will extend north from the Van Nuys Metro G-Line, previously known as the Metro Orange Line station, to the Sylmar/San Fernando Metrolink Station, a total of 9.2 miles with 14 at-grade stations.

As the IOS was cleared and the design has advanced, the IOS portion of the Project is proceeding into the next phase of final design and construction to keep to the Measure M completion schedule. The IOS procurement process for a Contractor is anticipated to begin in early 2022 followed by groundbreaking later in the year
