route 20 and metro rapid route 720 bus lines despite the same service metro considers the bus service justified because both routes frequently run from downtown los angeles unlike the d line which is

used as a downtown shuttle on its shared segment with the b line the remainder of the line then consisting of a one mile stub between wilshire vermont and wilshire western had operated at a peak utilization of 11 in 2010 7 with ridership on stub stations lagging behind that of the b line s non shared stations 8 history edit wilshire normandie station on the opening day of the extension july 13 1996 main article history of los angeles metro rail and busway the current d line is the product of a long term plan to connect downtown los angeles to central and western portions of the city with a subway system original proposals in the 1980s had the subway line running down wilshire boulevard to fairfax avenue and then north to the san fernando valley residents in some parts of the city bitterly opposed the subway a 1985 methane explosion at a ross dress for less clothing store near fairfax gave rep henry waxman who represented the fairfax district a reason to derail the project that was opposed by his constituents by prohibiting tunneling in an alleged methane zone west of western on wilshire 9 the groundbreaking for the first segment of the subway was held on september 29 1986 on the site of the future civic center grand park station 10 the pre 2026 d line was built in two minimum operating segments mos 1 which consisted of the original five stations from union station to westlake macarthur park opened on january 30 1993 11 mos 2a including three new stations between westlake macarthur park and wilshire western opened on july 13 1996 12 the hollywood branch mos 2b began service in 1999 initially both branches were designated as part of the red line but in 2006 trains traveling between union station and wilshire western were rebranded to the purple line changed to d line in 2020 for greater clarity in 2005 after advances in tunneling technology specifically earth pressure balance boring machines waxman worked with mayor antonio villaraigosa to convene an independent peer review panel of tunneling experts the panel concluded in november 2005 that tunneling along wilshire could be done safely 13 based on those findings waxman introduced legislation h r 238 in the 110th congress later h r 4653 to lift his own ban the house passed it by voice vote on february 7 2007 and it was signed into law in december 2007 as part of the 2008 omnibus spending bill 14 future expansion edit extension to westwood edit wilshire la brea station under construction in november 2023 main article d line extension metro is constructing a major extension of the d line to beverly hills century city and westwood the new project is called the d line extension formerly the westside subway extension and section 1 broke ground on november 7 2014 15 metro released the final environmental impact report feir on march 19 2012 and section 1 of the project to wilshire la cienega station was approved by metro s board of directors on april 26 2012 16 notice to proceed was issued to tutor perini on april 26 2017 for section 2 from wilshire la cienega station to century city station in beverly hills there was public opposition to the d line extension led by school board president lisa korbatov the opposition existed because of the subway tunnel s route beneath beverly hills high school and korbatov and beverly hills residents were concerned about student safety issues allegedly posed by such a tunnel korbatov gathered around 5 300 signed petitions to send to u s president donald trump urging him and transportation secretary elaine chao to withhold federal funding from the project metro ultimately won in court but korbatov and the school district sued in state and federal court over environmental concerns for the project 17 18 tunneling eventually completed in beverly hills in early 2022 with no issues underneath the high school 19 construction is currently underway for the extension which is expected to open in three sections between 2026 and 2027 20 21 section 1 from wilshire western station to wilshire la cienega station opened on may 8 2026 to much fanfare 22 proposed arts district station edit main article arts district 6th street station metro officials have proposed extending service on the eastern side of the d line allowing subway cars to continue past union station to service the arts district neighborhood east of downtown los angeles d line trains pass through union station exit through a portal at ducommun street and stop in the arts district when they go to and from the division 20 yard for maintenance and storage proposals have included either one station at 6th street or two stations with the second one at 1st street in 2018 the metro board approved a 500 000 expense to undertake pre design activities prepare an environmental impact report and conduct public engagement for a potential station at 6th street 23 however it is unclear whether metro can raise the millions of dollars of funding needed to build the proposed station 24 one possible solution is a new tax district implemented by the city of los angeles that would tax a portion of property value increases in the downtown area and transfer those funds to metro to help build the station 25 a draft environmental impact report for the extension and station at 6th street was undertaken beginning in march 2021 26 operations edit on metro rail s internal timetables the d line is called line 805 maintenance edit inside train fleet number 530 on the metro d line the d line operates from the division 20 yard santa fe yard located in the arts district at 320 south santa fe avenue los angeles this yard stores train cars and equipment used on the b and d lines it is also where heavy maintenance is performed on the fleet subway trains access this yard by continuing eastward after ending their revenue service at union station exiting tunnels through a portal at ducommun street and then traveling south to the yard s entrance at 1st street rolling stock edit the d line uses a650 75 foot 23 m electric multiple unit cars built by breda in italy these trains are based on similar vehicles that were built by the budd company for the baltimore and miami rapid transit systems between 1983 and 1986 trains usually run in four car during peak hours and two car outside of peak hours the cars are maintained in a metro yard on santa fe drive near 4th street alongside the los angeles river in downtown los angeles in march 2017 metro ordered 64 crrc hr4000 railcars some of which will operate on the d line when the d line extension is completed 27 in january 2024 metro ordered 182 hyundai rotem hr5000 trains allowing for future replacement of all breda a650 trains expanded train service including a four minute train frequency and extensions of the d line over three phases 28 the first hr4000 train began revenue service on the d line on december 20 2024 due to testing on phase 1 of the d line extension 29 see also edit ride the
