Useful Tips
- Buy a TAP card online beforehand to skip the ticket booth line and enjoy a seamless transfer to Metro buses.
- Check the Metro app for real‑time arrivals; trains arrive every 8‑12 minutes during peak hours but only every 15‑20 minutes on weekends.
- Carry a reusable water bottle—Lake Station’s platform features a free water refill station, and staying hydrated is key in LA’s sunny climate.
