Two giants are competing to build mega transit project between SF Valley and Westside. One got a new partner. Any help?
The team proposing to build a monorail mostly in the median of the 405 Freeway through the Sepulveda Pass that would connect San Fernando Valley with the Westside has added a public transportation services company to its group in its effort to be chosen for LA Metro’s mega project.
L.A. SkyRail Express was awarded a predevelopment agreement contract worth $63.6 million from LA Metro in August 2021 for developing the monorail concept. It would have an aerial alignment primarily within the 405 right-of-way between the Valley and Westside. Travelers would get from San Fernando Valley to the Westside in 24 minutes. The project is expected to cost about $6.1 billion.
Sepulveda Transit Corridor Partners proposes mostly heavy rail with tunneling under the mountains and communities in the San Fernando Valley and Westside. In August 2021, STCP signed a predevelopment agreement with LA Metro for $69.9 million to develop its concept. Keolis, part of SkyRail, would not be involved with construction but with operation and maintenance, Hoghooghi said. Since original plans were drawn in 2018, the COVID-19 pandemic has reduced transit ridership, which is slowly rebounding in L.A. County. Keolis will focus on this and other ridership trends, he said.
“The Sherman Oaks Homeowners Association is extremely pleased that LA SkyRail Express has added Keolis to its monorail team,” wrote Bob Anderson, vice president of SOHA. “Keolis is a leader in operating and maintaining transportation networks worldwide, and their addition strengthens the LASRE team’s operating and maintenance expertise, which is critical to future operational affordability of the project. “which could continue until 2024.
