Here are some key things to know about the downtown-area curfew imposed by Mayor Karen Bass on Tuesday.
The curfew will be in effect between Golden State (5) Freeway to Harbor (110) Freeway and from Santa Monica (10) Freeway to where the Arroyo Seco (110) Parkway and Golden State Freeway merge. There will be “limited exceptions” to the curfew — residents of the area, “people traveling to and from work and credentialed media representatives,” according to Mayor Bass. Bass said she will huddle with leaders on Wednesday to decide if the area should be expanded. Anyone who is in violation of the curfew will be subject to arrest, according to Los Angeles Police Department Chief Jim McDonnell. Amtrak announced passengers will have access to Union Station for traveling purposes only. Union Station will be partially closed with most vendors unavailable during the curfew, specifically Metro. Metro announced the closure of the following stations: Pico, Grand Avenue Arts/Bunker Hill, Historic Broadway, Little Tokyo/Arts District, Civic Center/Grand Park, 7th/Metro, Union Station and Pico/Aliso Station. Businesses in the region were expected to close during the curfew, including bars and restaurants. Eateries posted “closed” signs and shared apologies to customers on social media. Several said they’d keep customers open on when they would reopen, suggesting they may be closed more this week. Performances at the Disney Hall and theaters in the L.A. Center Theater Group were canceled on Tuesday. Customers at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, Mark Taper Forum and Ahmanson Theatre were urged to connect with 213.628.2772 or tickets@ctgla.org for assistance. The curfew was expected to last “a few days” according to the mayor. The DLTA Residents Association said it’s uncertain when the curfew will lift. It suggested downtown residents not leave home, in the meantime, without either an ID with one’s address or a printed utility bill to prove residency.City News Service contributed to this report
