SUMMARY
The
Metro Orange Line project consists of buses operating in exclusive
lanes within an approximate thirteen mile stretch on LACMTA
right-of-way and one mile of mixed flow operation within public
streets. Terminal stations are located near the North Hollywood Metro
Red Line Subway Station and the planned Warner Center Transit Hub. The
Orange Line will have roughly one stop per mile located at major cross
streets. Low floor CNG-powered articulated buses will be given signal
priority at grade and at cross streets. With the exception of the
Warner Center Transit Hub, all stations will provide platforms for east
bound and west bound travel...Variable message signs will provide real
time information on bus arrival times.
