A full closure of the intersection of Broadway and Second Street in downtown Los Angeles for a transit connector project will begin as early as 7 a.m. Feb. 27 and continue through November, the MTA announced Friday.
The closure will affect motorists and bus riders traveling on Broadway between First and Third streets and along Second Street between Hill and Spring streets, according to the MTA.
Access to businesses and residences will be maintained during the closure.
The $1.55 billion Regional Connector project directly connects — underground — a nearly two-mile stretch between Metro’s Blue and Expo Lines and the Gold Line.
The connector will also have stations at First Street and Central Avenue and Second Place and Hope Street.
The project is expected to be completed by 2020.
