Location

The lot was built as part of the project to widen the Harbor Freeway and build the Harbor Transitway. Metro originally intended for Harbor Beacon Park & Ride to be a transit center for San Pedro,[2] but today it is only directly served by one bus route.

Prior to the Metro J Line's extension to San Pedro on December 15, 2015, bus service from San Pedro to downtown Los Angeles was provided by Metro Express Line 450. Metro's NextGen bus study aims to revert the J Line's 950 route back to Metro Express 450.[3]

The stop is close to the north end of the San Pedro Promenade along the waterfront and is walking distance from the Catalina Express terminal and World Cruise Center.[4]
