The Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Report for the Glendora to Montclair Project is available for review, with a public hearing on the light rail project scheduled April 16 in La Verne.

The purpose of the Draft SEIR and the public meeting is to evaluate changes proposed to the phasing and design of the 12.3-mile, six-station Metro Gold Line Foothill Extension Phase 2B Project (Project) – also known as the Foothill Gold Line from Glendora to Montclair – and to solicit public feedback on the Draft SEIR.
