Metrolink announced Thursday it will add special rail service during World Cup events in Los Angeles, including match days at SoFi Stadium and fan events at Union Station.
The expanded service will operate on the 91/Perris Valley, Antelope Valley, Orange County, San Bernardino and Ventura County lines during eight Los Angeles match days and four fan fest dates scheduled between June and July.
Officials said the additional service is intended to help fans and visitors travel to matches while easing traffic congestion across Southern California.
“With thousands of fans and visitors from around the world expected to attend, Metrolink will play a critical role in connecting locals and out-of-town guests to these historic events while reducing traffic and improving mobility across the region,” Metrolink Board Chair Doug Chaffee said in a statement.
Los Angeles match days at SoFi Stadium are scheduled for June 12, 15, 18, 21, 25 and 28, along with July 2 and 10.
Metrolink will also provide service for the “Heart of the City: Los Angeles Union Station Fan Zone” scheduled June 25-28 at Union Station.
Officials said the modified schedule will include late-night service for evening matches. Riders with Metrolink tickets will also receive free transfers to LA Metro, including direct shuttle bus service between Union Station and SoFi Stadium.
Standard Metrolink fares will apply during the tournament, including the systemwide SoCal Day Pass, which costs $15 on weekdays and $10 on weekends.
