The Foothill Gold Line Construction Authority will be dedicating the Monrovia Station in a ceremony this Saturday, Sept. 12, at 10 a.m. This and other station dedications were held in August and will continue thru September will celebrate the upcoming substantial completion of construction for the nearly $1 billion, six-station Foothill Gold Line light rail project from Pasadena to Azusa. The project is on time and on budget to be turned over to Metro for pre-revenue service in late September. Metro anticipates starting pre-revenue service in Fall 2015, and passenger service in Spring 2016. An opening date for passenger service has not yet been determined; however, during the Arcadia Station dedication, Metro CEO Phillip Washington revealed that the agency would announce a date for passenger service to begin within 30 days of project turn-over.
