Voice Your Support for Bergamot Station

Bergamont Station

On March 27th, the Exposition Construction Authority and MTA might consider razing Bergamot Station in order to house a maintenance facility for their cars when light rail comes to the West Side.

The Exposition Rail Line will bring much needed light rail from Culver City to Santa Monica.

While we are in favor of the completion of Phase 2 of the Exposition Rail Line, it is imperative that both the Exposition Construction Authority, the MTA and the City of Santa Monica understand how important Bergamot Station is to the cultural life of Los Angeles.

Take Action by sending a message by March 25th to the Exposition Construction Authority Planning Committee that the Expo Rail should not be placed at, Bergamont Station, or  the surrounding vicinity.

Thanks for voicing your support of Bergamot Station. The good news is, the project is currently in the Public Comment phase and the idea to use Bergamot is not in the environmental impact report. The response to this advocacy effort has been incredibly positive, over 300 letters have been generated. The community has done an incredible job at voicing the value of Bergamot Station! Stay tuned. More updates as new information arises.
