Location

Pioneer is a planned light rail station in the Los Angeles County Metro Rail system.[1] It is the southern terminus of the West Santa Ana Branch Transit Corridor project, located in Artesia at Pioneer Boulevard.[2] Measure M funds are programmed for a scheduled completion in 2041, though the project timeline is expected to be accelerated for an earlier opening.


The station is located adjacent to the former Pacific Electric West Santa Ana Branch Artesia station,[3] built in 1906.[4] Passenger services operated until 1950.
