hase 2 of the Expo Line is now complete with 19 stations connecting Downtown Santa Monica to Downtown Los Angeles. Weekday trains will depart stations every 12 – 20 minutes depending on the time of day. Travel time between consecutive stations will take between 1 - 6 minutes with total travel time between Downtown Santa Monica and Metro Center taking about 46 minutes.

A new walk and bike path parallels most of the Expo Line extension to make it easier to reach stations by foot or bicycle. Bicyclists can bring their bikes on trains or use the bike racks and lockers at the new Expo stations. Many bus lines also provide service to Expo stations.

Limited parking is available at some stations.

To plan trips, customers should visit metro.net, www.bigbluebus.com/ Routes-and-Schedules/ and www.culvercity.org/how-do-i-/ find/culver-city-bus/bus-schedules
