Metrolink is gearing up to put a pause on its trains at Union Station to hammer out the final phase of its Rail Modernization project. Starting December 26, the rail service won't be running for four days, hitting play again on December 30. During this period, riders will need to look for alternative methods of transportation since the company has announced that no substitute services will be provided.

Metrolink aims to thoroughly upgrade the track and signal systems that navigate in and out of the Los Angeles Union Station.

For those looking to plan their travels, detailed information can be located on the Metrolink website. A post on the City of Palmdale's official Facebook page also confirms the logistical details of the four-day closure. The update urges residents and potential riders in the Palmdale area, among other affected regions, to plan ahead to sidestep any potential disruption in their routines.

The Metrolink closure is a short-term inconvenience. Travelers are encouraged to keep tabs on Metrolink's progress on their website, where they can quickly find alternative routes or answers to any arising questions during this brief intermission in service.
