THE RETURN OF THE METRO 268 
SERVICE TO SIERRA MADRE 

Submitted by Max Romero,Member,

Sierra Madre Public Transportation Subcommittee 

After nearly a year of hard work and outreach, the Sierra Madre Public 
Transportation Subcommittee has finally secured an arrangement with Metro to 
return the 268 to Sierra Madre. 

The route will have five key stops along Sierra Madre Boulevard within city limits, 
connecting residents with the Sierra Madre Villa Metro station, The Shops At 
Santa Anita Mall and the El Monte Metrolink and Bus Stations.

While this achievement is monumental, this does not mark the end of the 
subcommittee. The next steps for the team are to reevaluate the city’s local 
program, the Gateway Coach, determining how to move forward, alongside 
making general mobility improvements.

Service on the 268 is projected to return on June 23rd and the subcommittee is 
looking into more ways to improve both the local transportation and mobility 
experience.
