Metro is again providing free Dodger Stadium Express bus services for fans attending home games this season.

Buses will be available for the Dodgers first home game against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Thursday, March 30, from Los Angeles Union Station in downtown and from the South Bay Harbor Gateway Transit Center in Gardena.

Regular fares apply on all other connecting bus and rail services.

The Dodger Stadium Express will pick up fans approximately every 10 minutes in front of Union Station West adjacent to Alameda Street near the taxi zone. Service from Union Station begins 90 minutes prior to the start of the game through the end of the second inning. Return service runs until 45 minutes after the final out or 20 minutes after post-game events.

Passengers can use two stops at the ballpark – either behind center field or at the top deck.

From Harbor Gateway Transit Center, fans can board buses located at Bay 9, with buses running every 30 minutes. Fans can also board at the Slauson, Westchester, Harbor Freeway and Rosecrans stations. Service from the Harbor Gateway Transit Center begins two hours prior to the start of the game and ends 45 minutes after games are over or 20 minutes after a post-game event.

Fans will be dropped off behind right field at Dodger Stadium. Buses back to Harbor Gateway Transit Center will pick up customers at the same location after the game.

Customers are encouraged to use the many transportation alternatives that serve Union Station to connect them with the Dodger Stadium Express, including Metro Rail, Metrolink, Amtrak and municipal bus operators.
