Although they separate in different directions west of downtown Los Angeles, the two subway lines (Purple and Red) were until recently considered two branches of one line, and are still marked this way in most stations, on schedules, and on older rail maps. As of March 2006, the combined Red and Purple lines averaged over 138,000 daily weekday boardings. For scheduling and operations, the line is known as the A Line (which it shares with the Purple Line), and Line 802.

History

Passengers at 7th/Metro Center

The Red Line opened in several segments. The first segment, from Union Station to MacArthur Park, opened in 1993. A western extension into Koreatown at Wilshire/Western opened in 1996, along the alignment later designated the Purple Line. In 1999, the second branch was extended from Wilshire/Vermont to Hollywood/Vine station, and in 2000, to North Hollywood.

The line was originally intended to run along the Wilshire Corridor to Santa Monica, but a 1985 methane gas explosion at a Ross Dress For Less in the Fairfax area resulted in Rep. Henry Waxman's (D-CA) legislation for a ban on Federal money being used for tunneling under Wilshire Blvd in his district due to methane gas safety concerns althrough and anti-subway sentiment by developers and neighborhood associations along the proposed route. Metro had always maintained that technological advances would allow it to tunnel safely. Methane is a chemical compound with the molecular formula CH4. ... Ross Stores, Inc. ...

In 1995, during construction of the subway, a sinkhole appeared on Hollywood Boulevard, barely missing several workers and causing damage to buildings on the street. Subway construction was halted until the situation was resolved and a replacement contractor, Tutor Saliba, was hired. Devils Hole near Hawthorne, Florida, USA.

A 1998, Los Angeles County initiative introduced by Los Angeles County Supervisor Zev Yaroslavsky was passed by the voters, which banned the use of existing sales tax revenues for subway construction (which has been linked to voters perceptions of problems with Red Line construction and costs). Zev Yaroslavsky served on the Los Angeles City Council from 1975 until 1994, when he was elected to the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors. ...

In 2000, an urban art group known as Heavy Trash placed "Coming soon" signs advertising the "Aqua Line," extending the Red Line to the ocean, with ten prospective station stops. It was a hoax, but showed the frustrations surrounding the lack of a subway connecting Santa Monica and the Westside with Downtown Los Angeles. The Aqua Line name was repurposed as the proposed name for the Expo Line. The Metro Expo Line of the Los Angeles County Metro Rail is a light-rail line currently under construction in Los Angeles, which will run from Downtown Los Angeles to Culver City and eventually to Santa Monica. ...

In late October 2005, the new Orange Line Transitway with train-like two-cabin articulated bus bodies went into service. It links up with the Red line at the North Hollywood station in 13 stops over a 14-mile (23 km) exclusive use corridor to Warner Center in the far west San Fernando Valley. The busway had been constructed instead of a further Red Line rail extension in the Valley at a relatively low cost.

Possible Red Line extensions

After the 1986 ban on construction in the "methane zone," the planned Red Line route was changed to travel to the Santa Monica Big Blue Bus depot (formerly a Los Angeles Railway streetcar depot until 1963) near Pico and San Vicente Boulevards in Mid-City. On the other end of the line, the Red Line was originally intended to continue east beyond Union Station to East Los Angeles. At the north end of the route, the Red Line was to turn westward to Warner Center. A 1998 proposition was passed that banned using county sales tax revenue for subway construction due to the high cost of construction and problems associated tunneling under Hollywood Blvd. In 2005, years of traffic gridlock building along the Wilshire corridor led to plans to once again continue along the Wilshire Corridor beyond the current terminus at Wilshire/Western. The route to Warner Center was turned into the Metro Orange Line.

Westward expansion stopped

The westward extension has been for decades mired in political and socioeconomic debate with politicians giving vent to anti-subway sentiments and NIMBY isolationism. The Bus Rapid Transit Line that currently operates along Wilshire Blvd. run at capacity. Los Angeles mayor and MTA head Antonio Villaraigosa has declared an extension of the Red Line to downtown Santa Monica a major priority and is offering visionary slogans such as "subway to the sea" and "..the most utilized subway in the nation, maybe the world," and "..the most cost-effective public-transportation project in America."

Despite the lack of sales tax revenue and the two-decade old federal ban, the MTA is currently studying how to circumvent the constraints and the Wilshire extension of the Red line is included in the MTA's current 10-Year Plan. Transit advocates and some elected officials have proposed elevating the Red Line in the portions currently affected by the ban on tunneling in the Miracle Mile, but property owners and community groups have resisted such proposals. The Miracle Mile The Miracle Mile is lined by many high-rise buildings. ...

In the past, Westside residents, specifically affluent Hancock Park denizens, reportedly balked at a subway that would make their community more accessible from the "economically disadvantaged" Eastside and South Los Angeles.^[3] An initiative in 1968 that would have built a subway to West Los Angeles was rejected by voters. Hancock Park is a wealthy neighborhood in Los Angeles, California. ...

Westward expansion resurrected

With present density and traffic gridlock, many people (the residents and government of the city of Beverly Hills included) have done a complete turnaround on the idea of a Wilshire Boulevard subway. Congressman Henry Waxman, who sponsored the tunneling ban in 1985, and whose Westside district the extension would pass through had previously indicated that he would be willing to sponsor a repeal of that law if engineering studies declared subway construction in the area to be feasible. In October 2005, a group of experts declared that tunneling along Wilshire was safe. In August of 2006, the LACTMTA voted to designate the Wilshire/Western branch of the Red Line as the Purple Line.^[4] Subsequently, Waxman introduced legislation to lift the tunneling ban and there has been political support for the extension of the newly designated Purple Line towards Santa Monica. This legislation has passed the U.S. House of Representatives and is currently awaiting approval by the U.S. Senate. For other uses, see: Beverly Hills (disambiguation). ...

West Valley service

The new Orange Line transitway service is feeding about 15,000 new boardings into the Red Line at the North Hollywood terminus. Currently, little chance exists for further underground Red line extension at its northern terminus, though Mayor Villaraigosa has mentioned extending the Red Line along Lankershim Boulevard to the northeastern San Fernando Valley, with a terminus in Sylmar. To meet Wikipedias quality standards, this article or section may require cleanup. ...

One long-term possibility might be an underground extension of another mile or two to a future high-rise housing district, or to a multi-modal transportation hub at Bob Hope Airport in Burbank, a distance of approximately four miles. It would possibly go under Vineland Avenue and Vanowen Street. In 2006 a large number of housing units, including a high-rise tower was completed very near the North Hollywood (NoHo Arts District) station. A master planned multi high-rise complex further to the north could justify a future short extension, and also allow more commuter parking to be developed. No plan of this sort has been formally proposed, though some transit advocates have suggested that the Orange Line may be extended along the same route as mentioned above. Bob Hope Airport (IATA: BUR, ICAO: KBUR), formerly known as United Airport (1930-1934); Union Air Terminal (1934-1940); Lockheed Air Terminal (1940-1967); Hollywood-Burbank Airport (1967-1978); and most recently Burbank-Glendale-Pasadena Airport (1978-2003), is located in Burbank, California, United States. ...

Eastward plans

Although plans of extending the Red Line to the Eastside have been cast aside, construction of the Gold Line extension to that region is now underway. Ironically, 1.8 miles of the Gold Line Eastside Extension is being built as a subway underneath the low-income minority neighborhood of Boyle Heights. Although there are no plans to do such, it is conceivable that plans for a future eastward extension could involve the San Gabriel Valley rather than the Eastside. Some citizen proposals have included the conversion of the El Monte Busway to heavy rail, although this would disrupt the existing bus and Metrolink service along that corridor.
