Metro Eastside A Line extension meeting today, Merced Greenway ride, Metro budget meeting, and more.
- Monday 2/3 - Concluding today, Metro will host the last in the latest series of community input meetings on its plans to extend the E Line eastward to Montebello, then Whittier. The project is called the Eastside Transit Corridor Phase 2. Meeting will take place from 12-1 p.m. virtually via Zoom.
- Tuesday 2/4 - Metro will host a 6 p.m. virtual town hall meeting on the agency's 2025-26 budget. While it's good to push for livability priorities in the Metro budget, past annual budget theater meetings are generally not a constructive setting welcoming actual meaningful budget input. Details at The Source.
