Bus Stop Improvement Program
Public Works manages a Bus Stop improvement Program that provides for the installation of bus pads and the improvement and/or replacement of curb, gutter, and sidewalk at bus stop sites. Concrete bus pads are being installed in various unincorporated County locations to minimize pavement deterioration caused by bus traffic at bus stops.
Bus Stop Amenities Program
There are more than 2,100 bus stops throughout the unincorporated areas of the County. Public Works administers a bus stop amenities program that allows private vendors to install and maintain over 270 advertising bus stop shelters and 479 advertising bus benches, all at no cost to the County. Public Works also installed over 370 non-advertising shelters, 200 non-advertising benches, and 960 trash receptacles at bus stops. Furthermore, to improve safety and security for our patrons waiting for buses at night we installed over 150 solar light poles at various Metro and Foothill Transit bus stops.

Commuter Rail (Metrolink) Stations
In conjunction with the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro), the State, and the City of Palmdale, the Acton/Vincent Grade Metrolink Station opened for public use in 2000. To fit in with the surrounding community, we built this station following a western motif.
In conjunction with Metro; California State University, Los Angeles (CSULA); and the Cities of Alhambra, Los Angeles, and Monterey Park; we participate in the operation and maintenance of the CSULA Metrolink Station.
