Finish The Line!

Extending Metro's K Line to Mid City, West Hollywood & Hollywood

Metro is studying underground rail options through West Hollywood, Mid City, and Hollywood and will choose between three routes for the K Line Northern Extension this fall.

The City of West Hollywood and a regional coalition working to get this project built in our lifetimes support the San Vicente-Fairfax Alternative. Only the San Vicente-Fairfax route would serve all the top destinations and job centers along the way.

Why support the San Vicente-Fairfax route?

Why do we support the San Vicente-Fairfax route? Check out our video or read on. Note the K Line is referred to by the project’s previous name (Crenshaw/LAX Line) in the video. You can also find the video if you scroll to the bottom of the page.

The San Vicente-Fairfax route would...

  • Expand access to more jobs (three times more jobs are located in walking distance to the San Vicente route compared to the La Brea route)
  • Serve more residents (six times more residents are located in walking distance to the San Vicente route compared to the La Brea route)
  • Provide access to some of the most popular and iconic destinations in the region, from the Grove and the historic Farmer’s Market to WeHo’s Rainbow District and LACMA in Museum Row
  • Expand access to critical healthcare resources with easy access to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center
  • Check out our fact sheets on the project and the San Vicente-Fairfax route for even more details!

City's Role

We’re working to bring Metro rail to Mid City, West Hollywood, and Hollywood with the Northern Extension of the under-construction Metro K Line/LAX Line (aka "K Line North").

K Line North is a Metro project, but the City of West Hollywood is working to inform residents and stakeholders about the project and how to get involved in Metro’s process as they work to determine how it’s designed and who and what it connects to.

This microsite is part of that public awareness effort. The City is also working with our partners to line up funding to build the line ahead of schedule and studying how best to integrate rail service into the WeHo community.

Explore this site to find out more about everything from project benefits and proposed stations to travel time savings and the funding plan or visit www.weho.org/rail for more information on the overall project!

The Funding Plan

We heard you! West Hollywood residents overwhelmingly support bringing Metro rail to WeHo but Metro’s funding is too limited to finish the line and it isn’t available until 2041. We’re working on a plan to close the funding gap and build Crenshaw North decades ahead of schedule—without raising taxes. Click on the link below to find out more.

Metro is currently studying which of the three remaining alternative routes the project should take. The La Cienega/Beverly and Santa Monica/San Vicente stations would only be included in the project if Metro selects the San Vicente Hybrid route. The Santa Monica/Fairfax station would only be included if Metro selects the San Vicente Hybrid or Fairfax routes. If you want Metro to include these stations, please email them at crenshawnorth@metro.net or sign up for the email list below to be notified about upcoming opportunities to weigh in during Metro’s process!

Which Route Do You Prefer?

Metro is currently evaluating which of the three remaining alternative routes the project will take. The Santa Monica/San Vicente, Santa Monica/Fairfax, and La Cienega/Beverly stations would only be included in the project if Metro selects the San Vicente Alignment. If you want Metro to include this station email them at klinenorth@metro.net or sign up for one of the mailing lists below to find out about upcoming opportunities to weigh in during Metro’s process!
