LA Dodger Stadium Express Returns for 2025 Season
Paragraph 1
Dodgers fans can skip traffic and parking hassles this season by taking the free Dodger Stadium Express from Union Station, transit officials said. The service returns for all home games starting Opening Day, providing direct shuttle service between downtown LA's transit hub and the ballpark at Elysian Park. LADOT and Metro Los Angeles are operating the express service throughout the baseball season.
Paragraph 2
The Dodger Stadium Express has served as LA's primary public transit option for baseball games for years, helping thousands of fans avoid congestion around the stadium. Union Station connects to Metro's Red, Purple, and Gold rail lines plus regional rail services, making the express accessible from across the metropolitan area. Transit officials said the service is designed specifically for game attendees who want a convenient alternative to driving. The express eliminates the need to navigate traffic or pay for stadium parking.
Paragraph 3
The shuttle service operates from Union Station as the main departure point, with buses running before and after each Dodgers home game. Officials didn't provide specific details about bus frequencies or exact departure times by publication time. The express runs directly to Elysian Park, where Dodger Stadium is located. Transit officials said the service provides a smooth and safe way to reach the ballpark.
Paragraph 4
The Dodger Stadium Express begins service on Opening Day and continues throughout the season for all home games, officials confirmed. Specific dates for Opening Day and the full season schedule weren't available. LADOT and Metro Los Angeles typically announce detailed schedules closer to the start of the baseball season.
Paragraph 5
Fans attending Dodgers games can use the express service to avoid parking difficulties and traffic congestion around the stadium. Officials encourage riders to plan their trips in advance and allow extra time for travel on game days.
