Section 1 Purple Line Extension ConstructionUpdates Station Completion Percentages
This month, we focus on work progress in the three Section 1 stations.
Workers have completed the excavation of all three stations and poured thestation floors. The walls connecting to the floor have also been poured. As theremainder of the walls are poured, the temporary support of excavation (SOE)structures are removed, creating more open space within the station boxes.
Here is the progress status complete for each station:
Wilshire/La Brea Station: 49% completeWilshire/Fairfax Station: 41% completeWilshire/La Cienega Station: 26% complete
While work on the Wilshire/La Brea Station began before the other stations, itwill be the last completed. This is because it still holds the support system forthe tunnel boring machines.
