The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (L.A. Metro) has issued notices to proceed to two private-sector teams to officially begin pre-development work on Sepulveda Transit Corridor Project concepts.

The new, high-capacity transit line that will connect the San Fernando Valley with the Westside and eventually LAX, according to a news release.

Pre-development agreement (PDA) contracts have now been signed and will allow Bechtel to further develop its proposed heavy rail transit concept and L.A. SkyRail Express to continue developing its proposed monorail concept.

L.A. Metro is scheduled to begin its environmental review process for the project this fall. Alternatives for the project, including concepts from PDA partner teams, will be refined as part of this process and will include extensive public feedback and technical analysis.
