Metro Connections
Metro Connections is a system-wide series of service changes to restructure Metro bus service to better serve the varying ridership needs of diverse passenger groups. Most of these restructurings will involve breaking long routes into smaller route segments, combine segments of lines into loop routes and other specialized routings, and realigning route terminals to facilitate transfer connections.
The following links are to pages with maps of the major restructuring that has been either conceptualized or implemented by the Metro San Fernando Valley staff. The concepts have been grouped together based on the interlocked nature of the proposed changes. New line numbers created as part of completed restructuring are shown in blue type. Except for two changes implemented June 26, 2006 (a minor change to Line 158 which did not require a public hearing and the creation of Line 634, which had been approved in 2005 as a proposed extension to Line 230), the Metro Connections process began with the December 17, 2006 systemwide service change date and will continue in phases through 2009.
Where concepts have resulted in formal service change proposals, we have included maps from the public hearings on the relevant pages. Concepts that have not yet been proposed for implementation are shown on maps from the May 17, 2006 Governance Council workshop, included on the relevant pages.
Lines with changes implemented June 29, 2008 are designated with this icon:
