Link Union Station

The Link Union Station Project, managed by the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority, is a major infrastructure initiative designed to resolve existing capacity constraints at Los Angeles Union Station. The project aims to transform the facility from a stub-end tracks station into a run-through tracks station to better accommodate regional, intercity, and high-speed rail trains. Key components of the scope of work include the construction of eight new run-through tracks south of the station, a partially elevated rail yard, and an expanded pedestrian passageway. Additionally, the project involves off-site railroad improvements at the BNSF Railway's Malabar Yard in the City of Vernon, specifically involving the 46th Street Connector and the closure of 49th Street. The project is located at 800 Alameda Street in Los Angeles, California, and has undergone environmental review in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act. A Notice of Determination filed in October 2025 confirms that an Environmental Impact Report was prepared, mitigation measures were established as conditions of approval, and a mitigation monitoring plan was adopted. Administrative oversight is provided by Deputy Executive Officer Carlos J. Montez. While the provided documentation includes environmental filing fee receipts and compliance notices, specific procurement details such as the contract value, solicitation number, and formal contract type are not specified in the current records.
