Metrolink Commuter Service is Coming Soon to Perris, California

August 11, 2010

The Perris Valley Line is an extension of the San Jacinto Branch Line commuter rail Metro link 91 Line planned by the Riverside County Transportation Commission (RCTC). The new Perris Valley Line will expand rail service to southern and western portions of Riverside County with connection to downtown Los Angeles and is expected to be operational in 2012. This Metrolink project will travel along existing tracks in the Riverside county I-214 corridor beginning at downtown Riverside and ending near south Perris. There are seven Metro link stations planned along the new Metrolink line.

Currently in the conceptual design phase, ima is providing landscape master planning and landscape architectural services for the new Metrolink stations. The landscape development will incorporate green building sustainable design principles and will conform to the Southern California Regional Rail Authority, RCTC, Riverside county and multiple city guidelines and standards. With STV, ima is integrating the design criteria of the various agencies including the Riverside Country Transportation Commission.

The Perris Multimodal Facility, currently under construction, is the first phase of a bus and bicycle trail transportation nexus. Future development phases will accommodate the Perris Valley Line Metro Link rail extension from Riverside to the city of Perris. The Perris Multimodal facility is centrally located within walking distance of downtown and will spur the redevelopment of the area.
