The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority recently broke ground on the $898.6-million Airport Metro Connector project that will directly connect the Metro system to Los Angeles International Airport. The project will allow travelers to take a train into one of the nation’s busiest airports.
“This is an exciting project that will serve as the ‘Gateway’ to LAX for future generations,” said Metro CEO Stephanie Wiggins in a news release. “The AMC [Airport Metro Connector] station will also provide multiple connections to the Metro system and will help airport-area employees and travelers easily get to wherever they need to go in our region.”
