WHO: Residents / Businesses in the cities of Glendora, San Dimas, La Verne, Pomona, Claremont and Montclair
WHAT: The Foothill Gold Line Construction Authority invites all interested parties to attend the upcoming community information meetings for the Foothill Gold Line light rail project from Glendora to Montclair. The 12.3-mile, six-station light rail extension from Glendora to Montclair is breaking ground in October 2017. Six new stations will be added to the Metro Gold Line system (Glendora, San Dimas, La Verne, Pomona, Claremont and Montclair); each will connect to the expanding rail network throughout Los Angeles County, as well as the Inland Empire.
The Glendora to Montclair project is being funded by Los Angeles and San Bernardino Counties. The portion of the project within Los Angeles County (Glendora to Claremont) is being mostly funded by Metro’s Measure M half-cent sales tax that was approved by voters in November 2016 and went into effect on July 1, 2017, as well as residual Measure R funds from the Pasadena to Azusa segment that was completed under budget. The portion from Claremont to Montclair is being funded by San Bernardino County.
All meetings will display the same information and run from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. There will be no formal presentation, and project representatives will be available to answer questions regarding:
Stations – See the latest station layouts and 3D models
Station Art – See station art components and how each city’s history is reflected
Project Schedule – Learn the Project’s timeline and upcoming milestones
Construction – Learn what is to be expected during construction in each neighborhood
