Eh, it was mostly built. I doubt adding a few stations will be a gamechanger for overall transit numbers. Downtown and Hollywood have had subway service for a generation now. Locals in places like Bev Hills and Century City are far less likely to take transit than locals in Koreatown or MacArthur Park.
When the new segment opens, I doubt the relative ridership ratio between BART and LA MTA changes much.
