Welcome to the Year of the Horse! We're lucky to live in an area full of Spring Festival celebrations, and all the special foods, sights, and traditions they bring. So put on a new outfit (for a fresh new start!), and head to one of these local events: www.foothilltransit.org/articles/cel...

EB DTLA service starts at Union Station (and WB Silver Streak ends there) today for a demonstration. There may be more delays and detours today and tomorrow as well. Plan for extra travel time.

We're driven to give.

While planning gifts for the ones you love, you may be thinking about giving back to our great community, too. Here is a list of some local and transit-accessible toy, food and coat drives.

Rain is expected this week. Bring your umbrella, and remember: Limit your umbrella size to fit in your bag and on a crowded street. Angle the top of the umbrella towards the wind. Before boarding the bus, shake and close your umbrella. Don't put it on a bus seat.
