The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (L.A. Metro) is asking the public to participate in two virtual community meetings for Segment B of the Rail-to- Rail/River Active Transportation Corridor Project that involves a new bicycle and pedestrian corridor between the Metro A Line (Blue) Slauson Station and the Los Angeles River.

The meeting will provide an update on the proposed Segment B alternatives under study and the next steps for the project, which will help improve walking and biking options for residents of Huntington Park, Vernon, Bell, Maywood and Unincorporated LA County, as well as adjacent communities of the study area, L.A. Metro officials said in a press release.

Agency officials are also seeking input from residents, businesses and stakeholders to help shape the project, gather ideas and information and understand what matters to them.

The meetings will be held Sept. 9 and 11.

The project includes two segments: Segment A is the rail-to-rail component and Segment B is the rail-to-river component. Together, they will form one path connecting the future Crenshaw/LAX Line, J Line, A Line, and future West Santa Ana Branch Transit Corridor Project to the Los Angeles River.
