Expo train testing activities are schedules to start this week and continue in the area for the next several months. Testing will take place intermittently along the light rail alignment.
Safety Tips from Metro:
· Please obey all warning signs and traffic signals when crossing the tracks.
· Always look both ways before crossing any street
· Never walk on the railroad tracks
· Watch for trains from both directions
· Use the crosswalks – do not jaywalk across the tracks

The Expo Line light rail won’t begin service until the fall, but the track likely will be sporting some vehicles by the end of March. So the message is safety first.
Vehicles will be testing the track, clearances and the safety devices from Flower Street at Jefferson Boulevard onto Exposition Boulevard south of the USC University Park campus, according to Jose Ubaldo of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority.
The Expo Line will travel from downtown Los Angeles and end at either Crenshaw Boulevard or La Cienega Boulevard by fall and continue to Culver City in the first half of 2012, according to Gaby Collins of the Expo Construction Authority.
