A NEED TO KNOW ABOUT WESTWOOD'S PURPLE LINE METRO
The purple line metro in Westwood will be a new addition to the Los Angeles County Metro system, and it’s been welcomed with open arms by the community. The line will run from downtown Los Angeles to the campus of UCLA, making stops at popular tourist destinations like Hollywood and Beverly Hills. The work has already begun, and progress is visible on the tunneling of the sections between Century City and what will be the Wilshire/Rodeo Station under Downtown Beverly Hills.
The purple line metro is good for Westwood because it will provide an easy way for people to get around. The line will make stops at all of the major attractions in the area, so people can easily traverse as needed. Additionally, having a metro stop in Westwood will help to promote tourism in the area, which will benefit local businesses. Officials are confident that once the Purple Line Metro is up and running, everyone will see how beneficial this new addition truly is.
Proposed Stops on the Purple Line Metro
Some entrances and exits to the purple line are as follows:
- Westwood/VA Hospital
- Westwood/UCLA
- Century City/Constellation
- Wilshire/Rodeo
- Wilshire/La Cienega
- Wilshire/Fairfax
- Westwood/Pico
- Westwood/Veteran
The Metro Construction Phases
The Metro Purple Line’s current construction is in three sections:
- Section 1: Wilshire/La Brea Station, Wilshire/Fairfax Station, and Wilshire/La Cienega Station are slated to open in 2024
- Section 2: Wilshire/Rodeo Station and Century City/Constellation Station are slated to open in 2025.
- Section 3: Westwood/UCLA Station and Westwood/VA Hospital Station are slated to open in 2027.
Connections
Unfortunately, to date, no connections at any Purple Line Metro stop in Westwood will take you to Santa Monica. However, plenty of buses will be passing the Wilshire/VA Hospital stop of the Purple Line Metro that goes all the way down Wilshire Blouelvard into the Santa Monica area.
Real Estate Potential in Westwood
The Purple Line will be a tremendous economic boost for Westwood. In addition, many local real estate experts predict that property values along the route will rise once construction is complete. So contact Shilian Group if you have questions about buying and selling opportunities in Westwood.
