Redondo Beach station is an elevated light rail station on the C Line of the Los Angeles Metro Rail system. It is located over Marine Avenue in the city of Redondo Beach, California, after which the station is named. It opened with the commencement of Green Line service on August 12, 1995.[4] The station is currently the western terminus of the C Line. An extension beyond Redondo Beach into Torrance is in the planning stages.[5]
Under current Metro plans, the C and K Lines will be restructured by the end of 2024; Redondo Beach station will be served by the K Line, while the C Line will be rerouted to terminate at the future LAX/Metro Transit Center station.[6]
The station was initially named Marine Ave/Redondo Beach Ave but was later simplified to Redondo Beach in 2003.[7] [8]
The train platform, currently suitable for two-car trains, is planned to be lengthened by 2028 to accommodate longer three-car trains.[9] [10]
