More Transit Options to Santa Monica than Ever Before for Twilight Concert Series
July 5, 2016 2:54 PM
SANTA MONICA, Calif. — This Thursday, July 7, is the first Twilight Concert Series event of the 2016 season. The free series will bring thousands of people to Santa Monica on Thursday evenings through September 8. As concert goers plan their trip to the Santa Monica Pier, the City reminds our community and regional neighbors to consider all the great transportation options available in Santa Monica. There are now more ways than ever to get to and around Santa Monica. The Expo Line offers a direct connection from Downtown L.A. to Downtown Santa Monica, just four short blocks to the Pier. Santa Monica’s two other Expo Stations: 26th St./Bergamot and 17th St./Santa Monica College are less than ten minutes to the terminus. Big Blue Bus connects to all Expo Stations, and has routes throughout the region. Breeze Bike Share and bike valet make biking to the Pier safe and convenient.
