Video, Photo and Media Recaps: Glendora to Pomona Extension Opens for Passenger Service

This past Friday, September 19, at noon, Metro officially began passenger service on the Glendora to Pomona extension of the Metro A Line. It was a truly historic day for the San Gabriel Valley, with thousands showing up for the opening day ceremony, community events at each station and to ride the new A Line extension. Among those in attendance were past and present elected officials at all levels of government who helped make this historic day possible; the Foothill Gold Line and Metro boards and staffs; the project’s design-build team of Kiewit-Parsons; higher education officials; community stakeholders; and the media.
The Construction Authority again would like to thank the residents, businesses and students of Glendora, San Dimas, La Verne and Pomona for your patience and understanding over these past five years as this important project was completed. We look forward to riding this new extension with you.
