Dear Friend --

Nine months ago, the Blue Line closed to reimagine safety and the riding experience. Tomorrow, we reopen as the A Line!

It's time to celebrate with the return of Metro's oldest light-rail line, providing direct service between downtown Long Beach and downtown Los Angeles. Please join Assemblymember Patrick O’Donnell, Supervisor Janice Hahn, and me tomorrow, Saturday from 10 AM-1 PM, at Promenade Square on 1st Street, just steps from the A Line's 1st Street Station.

We have awaited the completion of this project and now it's time to reopen. This $350 million investment will improve safety, increase reliability, and enhance the customer experience by providing new lighting, refurbished stations, updated signage, digital real-time arrival displays, and new landscaping and fencing.

In addition, you will experience a much cleaner A Line, with new trains, and—the best part of all—a faster end-to-end link, as efforts here in Long Beach and in Los Angeles have shortened the trip to its fastest time ever. What’s more, Metro is offering free rides all weekend long and into the first weekday of A Line service, from this Saturday, November 2nd through Monday, November 4th.

For more information on this weekend's celebration, go to metro.net/aline <[link removed]>. And for more information on the full project, check out metro.net/newblue <[link removed]>.

We've waited and now let's celebrate. We hope to see you there tomorrow!

Go Long Beach! And Go A Line!

Mayor Robert Garcia
