Metro Rail will be making important upgrades starting June 2.

Just north of Humboldt, we will be replacing registration arms, which keep the overhead wires properly aligned and tensioned to power the Light Rail Vehicles (LRVs). This essential upgrade will help ensure more reliable service and modernize key electrical infrastructure.

We are also preparing DL&W Station for service by completing field equipment installations and conducting field testing.

At Church Station, we will perform rail welding at the crossover, install train control cabinets, and update software and equipment. Additionally, we will carry out field commissioning, pre-testing, and final testing to complete the installation of the new crossover.

Thank you for your patience. We apologize for any inconvenience this construction may cause to our riders.
