The Inglewood Transit Connector (ITC) Project is set to receive $1,009,430,998 in federal funds, moving the project closer to full funding. The approval is the second-to-last step in the Federal Transit Administration’s project evaluation process
“This is a good day for the people of Inglewood and the entire region,” said Inglewood Mayor James T. Butts. “By signaling their commitment to invest significantly in our project, the federal government is recognizing the importance of providing better transportation options for our residents and to everyone in our region who wants to work and visit our city and its outstanding sports, entertainment, and commercial facilities.”
The ITC, a proposed 1.6-mile automated people mover, will address a “first/last” mile transportation gap between the Metro K Line and Inglewood’s new major employment and destination centers, including the Kia Forum, Sofi Stadium, YouTube Theater, the Intuit Dome and the surrounding area’s housing and commercial destinations.
