November 13, 2026
The Metrolink Board of Directors today approved the agency’s fiscal year 2027 budget, maintaining current service levels and averting significant weekday and weekend cuts following a $20 million state investment announced last week. The California State Transportation Agency (CalSTA) provided the additional funding – which will deliver financial support through fiscal year 2028 – through a special allocation of flexible State Rail Assistance, helping Southern California’s regional passenger rail provider finalize an annual budget that retains continuity of service for the nearly 700,000 people who ride Metrolink each month.
