After five years of design and construction, the Foothill Gold Line from Pasadena to Azusa is on time and on budget for construction completion in just a few weeks from now. The completed project will be turned over to Metro for pre-revenue service in late-September. Metro anticipates starting passenger service in Spring 2016. An opening date will be announced within 30 days of turn-over.
