I go here regularly after and to work. I give it 3 because it is recently updated, nice bathroom. But, they need more lights so feels safer at night (they do have security there at all hours) on the side nearest to the road and they need to correct the issue with making the buses easier to know and find which bus is yours. You wouldn't believe how many people miss their bus because of how many and confusing the signs are. Tip: make sure you get there with enough time to search and figure the stop out. Look for your number and the final stop it is makes this will help a lot.

  • Eddie Latimer

Good location to connect with Gardena, Metro and Torrance transit buses. On Galaxy, Charger and Dodger game days, shuttle buses will take you to the game and back. There's 24 hour service to and from Downtown L.A. and San Pedro, but you have to time the connection PERFECTLY. Otherwise, you're going to be stuck for an hour. (Those buses 910 and 246 respectfully run once a hour between 11 PM and 5 AM) Would have gotten 5 stars if there's was something to eat close by.

  • John Becich

Handy annex for access to downtown Los Angeles, via air-conditioned Silver Line freeway flyer bus. No light rail here. Silver Line (bus line 910) accommodates stops at a few major crossing points. PARK & RIDE. Free abundant car parking. Visitors to Los Angeles ("South Bay") should know this is a handy portal towards avoiding gawd-awful traffic into/out-of downtown and even points east of that (El Monte). Newbies beware, when driving in, to avoid bus-only lanes!

  • Easy Going

This is a bus depot for numerous bus lines that run in the surrounding cities including the freeway buses into downtown Los Angeles. During baseball season, are Dodgers express buse that take you directly to Dodgers Stadium for the baseball games. There are 3 automated bathrooms with toilets and wash-your-hands sinks. It plays music for you while it allows you so many minutes to relieve yourself and wash your hands and dry them.

  • R Jessica

I've waited less than 20 minutes per bus trip and most of the drivers are knowledgeable about all the transit lines and schedules so it's almost impossible to get lost riding public transportation. It's a great place to go on an adventure as most bus lines go just about everywhere. The agencies are all interconnected and with that, the arrivals and departures match up to ease you through the day and night.

  • jennifur zoe

First time gonna use the elevator seeing my bicycle weighs 34 lbs. Doors open and chicks zoning out and trickle of blood from her arm and dudes putting his rig/kit away looks up at me and scoots his ass back waving for me to come in and saying its cool come on in...tempting but no thanks just remembered gotta staircise carrying my bicycle don't feel like making you go to room temperature

  • Shawn Gillis

Great place to leave a vehicle to carpool downtown or wherever. Easy access in and out from the 91 and 110 freeways. Also just north of the 405. Busses to the Dodger games can get packed, sometimes only leaving standing room. Don't expect any gentleman to offer their seats to ladies in that crowd, as my wife and her girlfriend found out. Get their early and it would be a good option.

  • Ali Sherman

This is the type of place where you go just to pass through. You really don't want to be here longer than necessary. There are restrooms, but I wouldn't use them. It's very nice that so many buses stop here, but it's confusing to figure out which ones go where since it's like an island. The monitors are helpful for telling which bus will be in which bay at a certain time.

  • Patrick Healy

The silver line (910) only runs the entire route (to San Pedro) until 9 pm. After that, you'd have to transfer to another bus (246 to San Pedro) which takes twice as long... I just don't understand why they don't make it a rail line from San Pedro to the green line, and/or just allow Amtrak shuttles as a carrier since it's much faster than the 142, 246, and 910 combined!

  • Doerte Sennecke-Chow

Convenient place to start a journey to Santa Monica. It takes about 1 hour to get to Santa Monica from here. Take the 550 bus to USC. Change to the Expo Metro train at the Expo bus stop. Exit at Bergamot metro stop and enjoy the Art exhibits there. You can also look at the outdoor sculptures and grab a cup of coffee at the little cafe there.

  • Alejandro David Dumas

They need to remodel it and retrain the bus drivers. Passengers ask each other instead of the bus drivers because they're rude. They have bathrooms now. If you need to get a water i will suggest going to home depot if not taking the 246 which goes up Avalon and there's tons of places 99c mcdonald's walmart Carson mall etc

  • NoBrain NoGain

Because of the Free Shuttle for Dodgers Stadium. Dodgers Stadium Parking is Awful because Dodgers are Popular so Many Cars there, and also, Parking Fee is Pretty Expensive. There is Free Parking here and there are Enough Parking Lots. I recommend using Shuttle Bus to visit Dodgers Stadium.

  • Willy Montoya

BUS CENTRAL! This is a nerve center. Also a good place to get your "Tap Card" and refill it as well for Metro Bus Lines. I would of given it more stars but the signs for the buses can be a bit confusing and they should add more TAP CARD machines, especially in the parking lot areas.

  • Jonathan Smith

Accurate schedule monitors. Comfortable seating options. Well maintained and clean atmosphere. Nice bus operators. More 910/950 routes that continue through this station without forcing transfers would be really great. (Attn Dept of Transportation; wink wink, nudge nudge)

  • Ruben Cruz

It is best to check the bus schedule before getting to the station. I find that the screens showing you the bus arrivals are not accurate half of the time. They have been doing some construction and they might be updating that system but who can say with any certainty.

  • Jared Hardy

Bus directions and departure locations are never clear. If a bus you pay to get onto elsewhere stops here without warning, then you get onto a bus of the same number to continue on the same route, they erroneously ask for transfer or duplicate payment.

  • Antoine Perrin

Had to change my review. They stopped me from parking here even though my RV is less than 30 feet long and I ride the bus often. Called the person in charge of park an ride and of course I was sent to voice mail and she never called back.

  • Jeff LaBarre

I am usually here only late at night (after midnight) when the 950 doesn't run all the way to San Pedro and I have to transfer. There are sufficient benches and an automated bathroom facility (wasn't working the last time I was there)

  • Ebony Beasley

This is a great connection spot. However, the buses at this connection run every 30+ minutes. So it is key to communicate with the bus drivers if you want a smooth connection. If you travel by bus to this destination as the bus driver

  • Kathy Levy

The worst experience waited 70 minutes to get on the bus to Dodger Stadiem. Missed first 2 innings then waited over an hour for the bus to come back to Dodger Stadium to bring us home. Total bummer. Poor management.

  • Laura Topete

So incredibly convenient. It's right off the 110 fwy fastrak lane. Parking is free. Our family parks there for la Galaxy gamrs and we use the complimentary shuttle to get us to the stadium.

  • Bri C

the set up is good, easily allows you to get from bus to bus. there are restrooms although i did not use them. I found myself waiting for the wrong bus and Metro worker helped it.

  • Sonja El

The wait time, well lit area, and getting from one place to another made me feel safe and, also seeing LAPD there eased my stress levels. Thank you Los Angeles City Transit.

  • Cloudy Love

Sometimes you can wait a long time for connection buses. Seems like all the buses are now set similar or close to it. Seems like it used to have buses staggered schedules

  • Manuel U

This is a very clean place where you can connect to buses to go to Gardena, San Pedro', Long Beach Etc Etc very convenient after taking the silver line metro

  • Nuni Noon

Difficult finding my bus stops since they did not put up new signs. Make sure to clean the area up as well. Need to represent California the right way!

  • Tom Bazan

It's a transfer center. The indoor area was under construction, but the automated public restrooms--in a separate building--were open to the public.

  • Cathy Mcmichael

I feel very safe here..U can make connections to different bus lines..close to 110 and 405 and 91 freeway.Plenty of park cars and plenty of space.

  • Marie L.

You can make connections to a large selection of bus lines. There is plenty of parking for cars and bikes. Close to the 110 405 and 91 Freeway.

They should put signs up that everyone could understand and know where to wait for the bus they need to go to their destination...

  • Isaiah H.

Don't try these bathrooms and it works as it should. It's a simple place to wait for your bus with concrete seating and benches

  • John Corey

Its a bus station and park N ride. You come and park for free and ride an express bus to L.A. faster than driving in rush hour.

  • rajeeva voleti

I wish there are quicker routes to Torrance and downtown from here. Busiest during peak hours but looks skeptical otherwise.

  • Lisa G
