Public Transportation to the Rose Bowl? - Page 2

Ghoulish Delight · 12-30-2008, 11:46 AM

Unfortunately Los Angeles MTA (aka Metro) is not currently participating with transit.google. Metrolink (longer distance commuter trains) is, but the trip 'goon is looking it involves Metro only, so google is no help.

Blue Line 7th and Metro, Red line to Union Station, Gold Line Rose Bowl. Plenty of parking at the Wilow Street Station which is about 1/2 mile from our house.

Ah, didn't realize they required the participation of the transit agencies. I assumed they were just mining the data. So much for my goal of planning a cross country trip using public transit.

Thanks for all the help guys.

At this point, I'm either going to do the blue line/gold line/shuttle thing, or meet my dad in the LA Zoo parking lot and carpool in.

Thank goodness. The thought of someone doing the bacon is quite disturbing on perhaps more than one level.

Don't forget to make sure the return trip is doable at a time you'd be comfortable with.

She was shooting for an all-public-transportation solution.

Note that it would be Blue Line/Red Line/Gold Line/Shuttle as noted in NA's post above.

I know, but I didn't have a good experience on the Blue line and the hybrid thing is generally how I function when using public transit. I use public transit for as much of the trip as I can, but I still generally wind up driving at least to a Metro stop.

I say Morro should just walk there.

Of course she'd have to start now. And miss the party.
