Document Description
The Link US Project is proposed to address existing capacity constraints at Los Angeles Union Station (LAUS). The Project would transform LAUS from a stub end tracks station into a run-through tracks station and would include a partially elevated rail yard, an expanded pedestrian passageway, and 8 new run-through tracks for regional/intercity trains and high-speed rail trains south of LAUS. The Project also includes off-site railroad improvements to BNSF Railway's Malabar Yard in the City of Vernon (49th Street Closure and 46th Street Connector).
