Construction began in April 1997. Operations began in April 2002.The Alameda Corridor is located in southern Los Angeles County, California, running from the ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles 20 miles north to downtown Los Angeles, primarily along and adjacent to Alameda Street. The project extends through or borders the cities of Vernon, Huntington Park, South Gate, Lynwood, Compton, Carson, Los Angeles, and the County of Los Angeles.ACTA's principal responsibilities include: dispatching trains, security and maintenance of the infrastructure, and the collection of fees from the railroads for the use of the Alameda Corridor to pay debt service on the outstanding revenue bonds.
