Metro Exposition Light Rail Line, Phases I & II

Metro Exposition Light Rail Line, Phases I & II

Miyamoto provided structural design and construction administration for all 17 stations on both phases of the Exposition Light Rail Line, which extends from Pico Station in Downtown Los Angeles to 4th and Colorado Station in Santa Monica. Both phases were developed under a Design-Build delivery method. Station elements included raised platforms, ramps, retaining walls, canopies, control/signaling buildings, OCS bases and signage support. At the five grade-separated stations, our work also included stairs, escalators, elevator shafts and machine rooms. All stations were designed with a common theme featuring cantilevered canopy roofs and undulating, highly sculpted structural steel elements at the canopies and elevator shafts.
