Summary:

The North Hollywood to Pasadena Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Project is part of Metro’s plan for better transit. This project will connect North Hollywood, Burbank, Glendale, Eagle Rock and Pasadena through a new zero-emission BRT service that is faster, more reliable, and operates like the best rail lines in the County.

In September 2026, crews began construction in the City of Burbank. Prior to the start of major construction on Glenoaks Bl at Providencia Av and Alameda Av, crews will conduct work to locate underground utilities.

When: Construction activities are anticipated to begin the week of October 26, 2026, for approximately 1 week.  

• Glenoaks Bl/Providencia Av intersection is expected to begin on October 28, 2026, for approximately 2 days.  

• Glenoaks Bl/Alameda Av is expected to begin on October 28, 2026, for approximately 3 days. 

Work Hours:

• Monday through Friday, from 9am to 3pm.

Location:

• Glenoaks Bl: temporary lane closures approaching the intersection. At least one lane will remain open

• Utility exploration may occur in the sidewalk. Sidewalks and access to businesses will remain open.

What to Expect:

• All work has the necessary permits and approvals. 

• The work will consist of boring a hole through the roadway or sidewalk to locate underground pipes. Once the pipe is located, the hole is filled back in. Noise and minimal vibration from drilling are expected. 

• Signs and flaggers will direct drivers through work areas and pedestrians through sidewalks and crosswalks.
