Airport Metro Connector 96th Street Station

Agency: Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority

Soteria’s Role: Threat and Vulnerability Analysis and Resolution and System Safety and Security Planning and Certification

Completion Date: Scheduled for 2024

This project is for a major transit hub that will connect the Metro Crenshaw/LAX and Green rail lines, area bus routes, and the LAX Automated People Mover.

The Aviation/96th Street Station will be a light-rail station on the Crenshaw/LAX line. This station will be a gateway to LAX and provide the connection for passengers, employees and visitors between LAX and the regional bus and rail transit system, minimizing the impact to airport facilities and surrounding communities. Project features include:

  • Large-capacity light rail station
  • Bus Plaza and terminal facility for Metro and municipal buses
  • Secured bicycle parking
  • Metro Customer Center
  • Pedestrian Plaza with passenger pick-up and drop-off area
  • Direct connection to the LAX Automated People Mover, a project to which Soteria is also contributing

Soteria Company developed the Threat and Vulnerability Analysis report and prepared graphics to support and communicate the security and crime data research findings. Soteria is actively working on the certification and audit process of the design conformance checklists and will also develop the construction conformance checklists and facilitate the certification process.
