[Superivsor Mike Antonovich] – Supervisor and MTA Chairman Michael D. Antonovich joined community leaders and local businesses Friday at the Gold Line Memorial Station in Pasadena to announce the expanded late-night weekend service on all Metro Rail lines throughout Los Angeles County and the Metro Orange Line busway in the San Fernando Valley.

“One of the most frequent requests we receive is to extend Metro rail service past midnight on weekends to afford our residents a reliable transit option to visit culture and entertainment venues throughout the county,” said Antonovich. “Starting today, the Metro Blue, Red, Green, Gold, Orange, Purple and Expo lines will operate until 2 a.m. on Friday and Saturday nights. The Orange Line will run up until 2:40 a.m. to accommodate the transfer of patrons from the Metro Red Line at the North Hollywood Station.”
