Metro Sets Station Advisory Meetings

The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority announced Monday that it will host three station area advisory meetings to provide community input to Metro subway planners on potential design and features of proposed stations, including the ones in Westwood and Century City.

The Century City and Westwood/UCLA Station Area Advisory Groups will meet Wednesday, Feb. 23, at Westwood United Methodist Church Fellowship Hall, 10497 Wilshire Blvd.

Additional meetings will be held at the Beverly Hills Public Library, Tuesday, Feb. 22, and at LACMA West, Monday, Feb. 28.

All meetings are scheduled from 5:30-8:30 p.m. Metro staff will be available to answer questions.

Advisory group meetings will be conducted somewhat differently than held for the Westside subway extension.  The groups are intended to function as roundtable discussions where members will engage with each other and Metro planners on issues specific to the design of each station and station area. Each meeting will begin with a brief presentation, then the individual station groups will break into separate sessions to discuss their specific station. 

Metro is currently conducting a final environmental impact report for the Westside subway extension project. If approved, construction could begin in 2013 for a 2022 opening.
