Getting to Hollywood, Glendale or Pasadena from Oxy

This necessitates a little more walking to the lines that run on Colorado Boulevard and Yosemite Drive. The closest line to walk to is Metro Line 181

Metro Lines 180 and 181

Metro Line 181 runs from Hollywood to Pasadena via Hollywood Boulevard, Central Avenue, Yosemite Drive and Colorado Boulevard. The closest stops to Oxy are Yosemite and Eagle Rock, 2050, Maywood, Norwalk, and La Roda (aka cutting through the park over by ERHS). To go to Pasadena, board a bus for "Sierra Madre Villa" on the south side of Yosemite. To go to Glendale or Hollywood, board a bus for "Hollywood" on the north side of Yosemite. Though it is the closest walk, Line 181 does not run as frequently as lines 180 and 780.

Metro Lines 780

Lines 180 and 780 both run along Colorado Boulevard between Hollywood, Glendale and Old Town Pasadena. Line 180 is a Local (orange bus), and Line 780 is a Rapid (red bus). The closest stop for them is at Eagle Rock and Colorado (by the Swork). To get to Glendale or Hollywood, board Line 180 for "Hollywood" or Line 780 for "Washington/Fairfax" on the north side of Colorado. To get to Pasadena, board Line 180 for "Altadena" or Line 780 for "Pasadena City College".
