Pioneer is a planned light rail station in the Los Angeles County Metro Rail system.[1] It will be the southern terminus of the West Santa Ana Branch Transit Corridor project, located in Artesia at Pioneer Boulevard.[2] Measure M funds are programmed for a scheduled completion in 2041, though the station may be constructed for an opening between 2033 and 2035.[3][4] Further acceleration as part of the Twenty-eight by '28 initiative may cause the station to have operating service as early as 2028. The route may later on be further expanded along the West Santa Ana right-of-way, but Metro has not yet announced any plans to do so.

The station is located adjacent to the former Pacific Electric West Santa Ana Branch Artesia station,[5] built in 1906.[6] Passenger services operated until 1950.

Connections

Metro route 62 passes nearby the station at 183rd / Pioneer. Norwalk Transit line 2 also passes by at the same stop. Norwalk Transit also provides buses which connect to the Norwalk/Santa Fe Springs Metrolink station.
