LA Metro agrees to improve access at Union Station

May 2, 2023

Following an investigation that found Los Angeles Union Station was not accessible to persons with disabilities, the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) entered into a settlement agreement that requires the agency to correct violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

 

The United States Attorney’s Office announced the settlement agreement that deals with the findings of an investigation of Union Station under Title II of ADA. The investigation showed that Metro, which is responsible for Union Station, did not make the facility readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities, including individuals who use wheelchairs. Station facilities include the station structure, the platform, and any parking facility.
