I always thought the first Gold phase should have gone to Arcadia instead of Sierra Madre Villa, and this Foothill bit to Glendora if not Pomona.

Rather than waiting until the entire 11.5 mile Gold Line extension is complete to Azusa and ready for operation in 2016, a Metro official says the line could open to Arcadia more than a years earlier than expected when bridges and a station are expected to be ready as early as next year.

Arcadia resident Douglas R. Failing, P.E., Executive Director, Highway Program for Los Angeles County Metro, told attendees Thursday (Jan. 3) at the Arcadia Chamber of Commerce’s Government Affairs Forum, sponsored by Expedia, also said that construction on the entire 11.5-mile route to Azusa will likely be completed before the announced late 2015 date. He sad it’s possible the first segments of the route — Arcadia is the first stop east of the current last station in east Pasasdena — could be considered to begin operating once they are complete as early as 2014 or 2015.
