CRENSHAW — After months of construction delays, including redoing an underground portion of the line, the Crenshaw/LAX Rail Line is now on pace to open in 2021.

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, officials from the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority held a virtual meeting May 7 to update community members about the $2.1 billion transit project.

Mark VanGessel, project manager for the rail line, said work on the Crenshaw/LAX Line is 95% complete.

The Crenshaw/LAX Line will allow sports fans and concert-goers access to Inglewood via mass public transit.

A project overview said the line also will connect riders with employment opportunities throughout Los Angeles County.
