Ready for the unexpected, at all times of day.

Our Public Safety officers are trained to act quickly to investigate and address potential threats like these.

Help us keep Metro customers safe. Never touch or move a suspicious bag. Report it immediately.

This pioneering achievement positioned the initiative as a significant milestone in the development of transit security practices.

Security focused leadership was central to the project, helping advance an initiative intended to strengthen MetroLink security and establish a precedent for the use of security gating in American public transportation.

The MetroLink Security Gating Initiative stands as an example of security-focused project leadership and innovation in public transit, highlighting the importance of forward-thinking planning and practical security solutions in protecting transit infrastructure and supporting public confidence in the transportation system.
