Inglewood Transit Connector
The Inglewood Transit Connector Project is a proposed 1.6-mile (2.6 km) fully elevated, automated people mover system in Inglewood, California, that will connect the Downtown Inglewood station on the K Line of the Los Angeles Metro Rail system to the major sports and entertainment venues in the city: Kia Forum, SoFi Stadium, Hollywood Park Casino and the under-construction Intuit Dome. The project was planned to break ground in 2024 and begin operations in late 2027, ahead of the 2028 Summer Olympics that will use some of the venues. However, the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) currently reports that the transit connector will not open for revenue service until early 2030.
