Work on the L Line will close 2 streets in Glendora for the remainder of 2020 - Inland Valley Daily Bulletin

For about the next five months, railroad crossings at both Glendora and Barranca avenues in Glendora will be fully closed as the next phase in the L Line, formerly the Gold Line, light-rail extension begins.

Kiewit-Parsons, the firm building the project, will have crews working on underground utilities, relocating existing freight track, installing two new sets of light-rail tracks, adding a safety and communication system, rebuilding the street and more.

The closure at Glendora Avenue begins Friday, Aug. 21, and will continue through Jan. 15, 2021, the Metro Gold Line Foothill Extension Construction Authority said in a news release. The main alternate routes will be on southbound and northbound Vermont Avenue. Ada Avenue and Route 66 also will serve as detour routes.

The closure at Barranca Avenue will start Tuesday, Aug. 25, and will go through Jan. 8, 2021. Both northbound and southbound Grand Avenue will serve as the main detour routes. Other nearby detour options include both eastbound and westbound Bennett Avenue and Foothill Boulevard.

Both railroad crossings will be closed to vehicular and pedestrian traffic all day, every day. Access to homes and businesses on both sides of the railroad crossings will be maintained at all times, according to the Construction Authority.

The Foothill extension of the L Line is planned to bridge 12.3 miles between its current terminus in Azusa and Montclair. Plans include six light-rail stations, one each in the cities of Glendora, San Dimas, La Verne, Pomona, Claremont and Montclair.

The 9.1-mile segment from Glendora to Pomona is scheduled to be completed and operational by 2025.

The next leg from Pomona to Montclair is expected to be completed by 2028, if the agency can secure additional funding by October 2021 to push the extension into San Bernardino County.
