An emergency power cable, rated at 34,500 VOLT AC, runs approximately 6 feet above track level on the AL side, supplying station power through an emergency generator if there is a DWP failure.

Emergency fans are installed at each station end for ventilation, with a computer-controlled system operational for various scenarios; manual control is available at the Emergency Management Plan (EMP).
Ancillary areas lack mechanical ventilation but utilize room dampers for air control.

Two Blast Relief Shafts (BRS) are situated, one adjacent to each end of the station: one near the North Fire Department Connection (FDC) on Vermont Ave and another on Wilshire, east of Shatto Place.
