Metrolink Offers Service to New COVID-19 Vaccination Site at Cal State LA

LOS ANGELES – Metrolink offers a direct connection to Los Angeles County’s newest COVID-19 vaccination location at California State University, Los Angeles or Cal State LA with a station located near the new “walk-up vaccination center” that opened Feb. 16. The vaccination center will be open 7 days a week from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Metrolink’s Cal State LA Station is on the San Bernardino Line. Metrolink riders can reach the walk-up vaccination location by taking the elevator or stairs from the train platform to the university transit center and following directional signs to Structure A. Shuttles will take people from the transit center to the vaccination walk-up site.

Metrolink trains make 15 stops at the Cal State L.A. station between 9 a.m. and 7 p.m. on week days, with 12 trains servicing during those hours on Saturday and ten on Sunday. See Metrolink schedules here, www.metrolinktrains.com/schedules 

The new vaccination super site also has a drive-up center located in Parking Lot 5 on the north side of the campus. Vaccination appointments can be made using the state’s My Turn system at, www.myturn.ca.gov or by calling 833-422-4255.

The CSULA site is part of a White House program to establish 100 sites nationwide in the first 100 days of President Joe Biden’s administration. It is being co-managed by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) and receives federal staffing and operational support.
