Exposition Connection
• At-grade connection to Exposition – challenging – Right-of-way (ROW) conflict with District
Square Development
– Significant at-grade ROW impacts – Unmitigable Traffic Impacts – Difficult Safety Issues
Below-grade configuration withBelow-grade Crenshaw/ExpositionStation is being examined in the Final
EIS/EIR and Preliminary Engineering• Cost remains an issue
