LAX Shuttle route C offers free connections between the LAX City Bus Center and the Central Terminal Area, starting at terminal 1, and servicing the terminals in a counter clockwise direction.[1][2]
The LAX City Bus Center is served by Beach Cities Transit line 109 to Redondo Beach, Culver CityBus lines 6 and Rapid 6 to Culver City and UCLA, Los Angeles Metro Bus lines 102 to South Gate, 111 to Norwalk, 117 to Downey and 232 to Long Beach, Santa Monica Big Blue Bus lines 3 and Rapid 3 to Santa Monica, and Torrance Transit line 8 to Torrance. During the overnight hours, Los Angeles Metro line 40 offers service to Downtown Los Angeles.[3]
On December 7, 2018, a new US$5.8 million bus center was opened near the site of the original. The new platform gave airport managers the room required to build the guideway for the new LAX Automated People Mover.[4] Local transit routes will eventually be moved to the LAX/Metro Transit Center station, which will be connected to the rest of LAX by the Automated People Mover system.
