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 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 

To help clarify some of the questions received during the community outreach process, we've developed a list of frequently asked questions and answers that can be accessed on the project website at metro.net/nsfvbrt/#documents or directly here.

Join us tomorrow at the upcoming Metro Board of Directors regular meeting.
The project will be on the agenda for consent at the Metro Board of Directors regular meeting tomorrow, Thursday, December 1, 2022, starting at 10:00am. 

The Board Report is available online and can be found in the "View Board Report" link below. The project is currently item 16 on the agenda and comments on the consent calendar will be at the beginning of the meeting.
