Metrolink seeking local feedback on ticket machines

PALMDALE – Metrolink is hosting a community workshop in Palmdale to receive the public’s feedback on Metrolink’s plan to replace and improve the existing ticket vending machines.

The plan may eliminate the option for customers to use cash to purchase tickets at some station platforms.

The public meeting will be held from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 6, in the Chimbole Cultural Center’s Lilac Room, located at 38350 Sierra Highway in Palmdale.

The meeting will consist of two rounds of formal presentations and two rounds of question and answer periods.

The first 20-minute presentation will begin at 6:30 p.m. and the second 20-minute presentation will begin at 7:30 p.m. The formal presentations will provide the same information and will both be followed by a 40-minute question and answer session.

A Spanish translator will be available to offer assistance at the meetings, and the presentations and surveys for feedback will be available in 12 different languages.

Metrolink will also conduct a public hearing on Friday, Sept. 9, at 10 a.m., in the Metro Board Conference Room located at One Gateway Plaza, Floor 3, in Los Angeles. The hearing will allow community members to provide direct feedback to the Metrolink Board of Directors.
