A “Hub of Hope” that would provide services to unhoused people who are removed from Metro trains each night is once again getting pushback from the city of Long Beach.

Metro proposed the idea of a hub after Long Beach asked them to reconsider its current end of the line policy, which dumps unhoused riders downtown each night. Downtown business owners say the unhoused wander around, committing vandalism and sleeping in front of stores.Sign up for NBC LA newsletters.
