The Blue Line platform at Imperial/Wilmington (Rosa Parks) is located at street level with an island platform, and has no actual canopy, all covering is provided by the Century Freeway at the northern end of the platform which the green line runs in the median of. To leave the station at the northern end is a staggagered pedestrian grade crossing and this leads to the eastern half of Wilmington Ave east of the tracks and the bus loop followed by the Park & Ride lot to the west. There are than a ramp to one side and 3 steps to the other up to the actual high-level platform, next is an elevator directly up to the green line platform and this is followed by a staircase/up escalator to a mezzanine winch in turn leads to a staircase/up escalator to the green line. The southern end of the platform is simply open with no further exits.
