The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority will temporarily halt C Line (Green) service between the Crenshaw and Redondo Beach stations Friday evening through Saturday for construction to connect the future Crenshaw/LAX Line.

Construction is scheduled to begin at 8 p.m. Friday and conclude at 11:59 p.m. Saturday. Metro will provide a free bus shuttle service to rail stations that will be out of service at Hawthorne/Lennox, Aviation/LAX, Mariposa, El Segundo, Douglas and Redondo Beach stations.

Shuttles will run every 15 minutes from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. and every 20 minutes at other times.

Regular C Line rail service will continue between Norwalk and Crenshaw stations, where passengers will transfer to bus shuttles to continue their trip.

The Crenshaw/LAX Transit Project is an 8.5-mile light-rail line with eight new stations that will serve the Crenshaw, Inglewood, Westchester and LAX communities.

An additional station is under construction at Aviation Boulevard and 96th Street, where Crenshaw/LAX Line and C Line riders will be able to transfer to the LAX Automated People Mover to access airport terminals.

For those planning a Los Angeles International Airport trip, the LAX Shuttle G will continue to run its regular service from its usual stop at Aviation/LAX Station. Other options to LAX include Metro Lines 102, 111, 117 and 232.
