A change is coming on April 19 for bus and rail patrons who use Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority’s transit services.

Metro, as it is known for short, will start running buses and rail on a modified Sunday schedule seven-days a week beginning on Sunday.

In addition, some Express, Local and Rapid bus lines — that normally do not run on the Sunday schedule — will be added to the seven-days a week new schedule.

Metro is stressing that it continues to provide bus and rail services to communities that are currently served.

The adjustment comes as county-wide ridership has fallen 64 percent on Metro buses and by 76 percent on rail due to coronavirus and Safer at Home order.

Most trains will run every 12 minutes between 6 a.m.-6 p.m. and every 20 minutes at other times. The last rain leaving terminal stations will be around midnight.

Also, Metro is considering closing some entrances to rail stations that have multiple entrances in order to reduce areas that need to be frequently cleaned. The entrance closures would allow for more intense cleaning in other parts of the system. Access for people with disabilities will be maintained at all stations.
