D Line Subway Extension Project – Section 1
Overview
The D Line Subway Extension Project will extend the D Line subway nine miles, creating seven new underground stations. The new rail will take riders from the Wilshire/Western Station to the VA Hospital west of the I-405 freeway.
Metro’s plan includes better transit to connect more people to more places with Section 1 of the Purple (D Line) extension. This project extends the Purple (D Line) from Koreatown through Miracle Mile, adding three new stations at Wilshire/La Brea, Wilshire/Fairfax and Wilshire/La Cienega.
Wilshire/LaBrea Station
The Wilshire/La Brea station will serve as an eastern gateway to the Miracle Mile area and provide easy north-south connections to La Brea Av. The station entrance is planned for the Metro-owned property on the northwest corner of Wilshire Bl and La Brea Av.
Wilshire/Fairfax Station
A station entrance is planned for the southeast corner of Wilshire Bl and Orange Grove Av. Metro is in discussions with the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) about adding another entrance that LACMA would fund. Having two entrances will reduce the number of pedestrians crossing at street level, while still facilitating bus connections.
Wilshire/LaCienega Station
The entrance to the Wilshire/La Cienega station is planned for the northeast corner of Wilshire Bl and La Cienega Bl. Given its location on a highly utilized north/south thoroughfare, the station will create seamless links to travel destinations along and near La Cienega Bl, such as Restaurant Row, Beverly Center and Cedars Sinai Medical Center.
Status
This project is under construction and slated to open for service in 2025.
