Schedule & Train Frequency

Midday & Evenings: Trains arrive every 6 to 10 minutes.
Late Nights (12:00 AM – 5:00 AM): Headways extend to every 12 to 20 minutes. Planned track maintenance frequently reroutes trains or requires express/local bypass tracks during overnight hours.
Weekends: Headways typically range from 8 to 12 minutes, subject to planned weekend capital construction.

Daily Commuter Tips for the L Line
Boarding Positioning: For rapid station exits, look for overhead directional signs on the platform indicating whether turnstiles or transfers are at the train's front, middle, or rear.
Weekend Construction Nuances: Track work frequently causes local trains to run on express tracks or bypass stations in one direction. Always verify the live status above before boarding during weekend hours.
Late Night Riding: If traveling between midnight and 5:00 AM, board the car with the conductor (indicated by an active zebra-striped board in the middle of the platform) or the front car near the train operator.
