Lines 96-183
(Riverside Dr. - Magnolia Blvd.)

Weekend service to Glendale (shown as red line on map) was cancelled June 24, 2007. The original proposal included a continuation of service between downtown Burbank and Alameda Ave., then via San Fernando Rd. to new east terminal at Burbank Metrolink (shown as blue line on map); as approved, weekend service uses the shortline terminal in downtown Burbank (shown as dashed blue line on second map). This was essentially a reconsideration of the 2005 proposal to eliminate service in Glendale which duplicates Beeline and other Metro lines.





It was proposed in both the June, 2008 and June, 2011 service change program that this segment be eliminated on weekdays as well; those proposals were withdrawn by staff both times after further review of passenger impacts.



The original concept, to combine Lines 96 and 183 between Burbank and Sherman Oaks into a new loop route (Line 96 would then operate only between downtown Los Angeles and Burbank Metrolink Station) was never formally proposed for implementation. Line 96 service between Burbank and Sherman Oaks was replaced by Line 155 June 26, 2011.
