As Angelenos continue to feel pain at the pumps, more people are considering public transit.
"We were already seeing more traffic in trains since more people were going back to work" says CEO Darren Kettle.He explains they are restoring much of the services that were previously reduced during the pandemic. Kettle said 26 more trains will be added for service on April 4.
They have also decided to keep some price-saving options, like the 5-Day Flex Pass . Right now, they are good for 30 days but they may expand the pass to be 10 tickets for 60 days. Also staying is the kids ride free on weekend pass and the Saturday-Sunday $10 to travel anywhere for adults option. Keep in mind that Metrolink happens to be the first railroad in the world operating on renewable diesel, which helps, but doesn’t completely protect them from fuel price increases. Kettle explains it’s too early to tell if they will be impacted, but he believes that commuting by train will remain a much cheaper option than fueling up your car.Tune in to FOX 11 Los Angeles for the latest Southern California news.
