Abstract:

Los Angeles is pursuing possibly the most ambitious rail transit investment program in the nation with plans to open six new

rail transit lines between now and 2019. The report provides policy makes and planners a better understanding of the potential

impacts of Los Angeles Metro’s rail transit investment program by assessing the changes in transit use of nearby residents and

nearby bus service associated with the Expo Line, the first of the six new lines. Our findings indicate that changes in bus service

that are coincident with the introduction of new light rail transit can negatively affect the overall transit ridership in the corridor. In

addition, we find that households living near new Expo Line light rail stations reduced their vehicle miles traveled (VMT), but those

households living near bus stops that were eliminated as part of the service change increased their VMT.
