April 10, 2014 Page 3 Police Reports Crenshaw/LAX Transit Project Community Updates Metro held a January 2014 groundbreaking ceremony to kick o= the start of construction. More recently, the project held its >rst community construction update meeting, an Open House at its new Airport Project O;ce at 9323 Bellanca Av. The event saw hundreds in attendance. Metro now provides daily project updates via Facebook (facebook.com/crenshawrail), Twitter (@crenshawrail) and emails. Several project factsheets pertaining to trees, work permits and environmental standards have been distributed. Metro will also continue to meet with community stakeholders to provide project updates. Other activities include partnering with community organizations to coordinate events promoting careers in construction. This has included appearances at Career Day at Crenshaw and Inglewood High Schools and mentoring two Morningside High School students for the day at Metro headquarters. Further, outreach to local artists has begun regarding the process of submitting art for Metro stations. The project team has also expanded with the addition of new members to WSCC and Metro. Moreover, the Crenshaw/LAX Transit Project and WSCC have contracted with several local vendors to provide a myriad of services to the project. WSCC is a joint venture between Walsh Construction and J.F. Shea Company. Together, they have collaborated on many rail projects in the United States, including systems in Dallas, Phoenix, Charlotte and Chicago. In addition to its October Business Opportunities Summit, WSCC has made an immediate impact in the Crenshaw/LAX community by hosting two food drives and a toy drive for the 2013 holiday season. As construction progresses on the Crenshaw/LAX Transit Project, Metro and Walsh-Shea Corridor Constructors (WSCC) are committed to providing the most up-to-date information on construction activities being performed along the 8.5-mile project route. Running from the Expo Line to the Green Line, the Crenshaw/LAX Transit Project has eight stations and will serve the Crenshaw District, Inglewood, Westchester and the surrounding LAX area with stations at Crenshaw/Exposition, Crenshaw/Martin Luther King Bl, Crenshaw/ Vernon (Leimert Park), Crenshaw/Slauson, Florence/West, Florence/ La Brea, Florence/Hindry and Aviation/Century. Current Construction Construction on the underground stations is anticipated to begin in late April with pile installation at Crenshaw Bl/Exposition Bl and Crenshaw Bl/Martin Luther King Bl. Concurrently, demolition work is slated to begin on the Florence construction yard located at Florence Av/LaBrea Av. As the Crenshaw/LAX Transit Project is a design-build project, project design continues while construction begins. Properties located at the future Expo construction yard have been cleared, and work on a 16-foot sound wall surrounding the yard has begun. Along the route, geographical boring (obtaining soil samples) and potholing (checking for underground utilities), as well as railroad track removal along Florence Av and utility relocation continue. 14-1774ps ©2014 lacmta 213.922.2736 crenshawcorridor@metro.net metro.net/crenshaw @crenshawrail facebook.com/crenshawrail Spring 2014 Project Update metro.net/projects Calendar All Cities Friday, April 11 • Book Sale (also 4/12), 10 a.m.-4 p.m., AC Bilbrew Library, 150 E.
