Expo/Vermont station is an at-grade light rail station on the E Line of the Los Angeles Metro Rail system. The station is located in the center median of Exposition Boulevard at its intersection with Vermont Avenue, after which the station is named, near the Exposition Park and West Adams neighborhoods of Los Angeles.[3]
The station is located close to the University of Southern California (USC), and several major museums and sporting venues inside Exposition Park. During the 2028 Summer Olympics, the station will serve spectators traveling to and from the temporary swimming venue to be built inside Dedeaux Field, a baseball stadium on the USC campus.[4]
The station will be a transfer point to the Vermont Transit Corridor, a Los Angeles Metro Busway line scheduled to open just before the 2028 Summer Olympics.
