Eyes on the Street: Little Tokyo Track Relocation Construction Underway

Last Friday, Metro began its slightly-delayed closure of the Little Tokyo Gold Line Station. The station will be closed for about three months while Gold Line tracks are relocated to make way for Regional Connector subway construction. If this construction goes reasonably well, the on time within-budget Regional Connector will open in 2021.

Metro’s contractors (Skanska and Traylor Bros.) wasted no time in getting started demolishing the existing rails immediately south of the station. More of today’s construction photos after the jump.
