The Metro Blue Line is running with 20 minute delays at this time due to a car abandoned on the northbound track near Florence Station. While Metro personnel and law enforcement work to remove the vehicle, trains will share the Long Beach-bound track between Florence and Willowbrook/Rosa Parks Station.
