Saturday morning Metro conducted an emergency drill along the new Metro Expo light rail line — this one inside the tunnel/trench between Jefferson Boulevard/Flower Street and Exposition Boulevard, just east of Trousdale Parkway near the Expo Park/USC Station. This drill simulates a fire in the line’s tunnel/ trench area.
This is one of several drills that need to be conducted in preparation for the opening of the new Expo light-rail line to Culver City. Metro conducts emergency drills on new and existing rail lines throughout the year in an effort to better coordinate response times and communications with Metro Rail staff and emergency responders.
