August 14, 2024 (La Mesa) --San Diego Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) passengers in La Mesa can now enjoy two new murals at the city’s Grossmont Transit Center along the Green Line and Orange Line Trolleys. Today, MTS unveiled two new works by local muralist and graffiti artist Maxx Moses. The Grossmont murals are part of a larger effort by MTS to provide a better, more inviting experience for passengers using the transit system.

“These murals are a way to represent our community and improve our rider’s comfort while waiting for their next ride,” said Patricia Dillard, MTS Board Member and City of La Mesa Vice Mayor. “Creating more inviting spaces along our system is a small way in which MTS is delivering better transit to everyone today.”

In the efforts to provide a more inviting experience on the transit system, MTS approached international muralist Maxx Moses for a new mural installation; he proposed two new works for the Grossmont Transit Center.
