The City is encouraging members of the community to get involved in the next phase of the “Connect Beverly Hills: Meet Me on Wilshire and La Cienega” project. Connect Beverly Hills was launched to help the City prepare for the upcoming Metro Purple Line Extension. Two new subway stations in Beverly Hills are part of that extension. The Wilshire/La Cienega station is set to open in 2023 and the Wilshire/Rodeo station is scheduled for a 2025 debut.
Due to the large increases in pedestrian traffic expected along those two corridors, the initiative is considering ways to make the streets more attractive and welcoming. The goal is to for subway riders to emerge from the underground stations, and immediately recognize their surroundings as Beverly Hills.
