The Summit of the Americas is being held June 6 to 10 in downtown Los Angeles. The summit is a gathering of governments and officials from countries in the Western Hemisphere.
There will be bus detours because of the Summit this week. Some of the bus detours are all week, others are just for Friday, June 10. All bus detours are listed below. We will be posting signs at bus stops on the detours. The Spanish version of this blog posts is here.
In addition, there may be other temporary bus detours, rail station closures or trains being held throughout this week.
