Slauson is an elevated light rail station on the A Line of the Los Angeles Metro Rail.[1] It consists of one island platform on the elevated A Line right-of-way over Slauson Avenue in the unincorporated community of Florence.
History
The Slauson station was built on the site of a major junction of the Pacific Electric Railway's Southern Division, where the Whittier, Fullerton, and La Habra lines split off from the Watts, Long Beach, San Pedro, and Balboa lines. This was called Slauson Junction.
West Santa Ana Branch Transit Corridor
Under current plans, the station will also be served by the proposed light rail West Santa Ana Branch Transit Corridor, one of the Twenty-eight by '28 projects Metro aims to have online by the 2028 Summer Olympics.[2]
