California

The Federal Railroad Administration withdrew funding for four projects related to California’s High-Speed Rail project.

The Los Angeles – San Diego – San Luis Obispo Rail Corridor Agency announced that train service north of Goleta will be suspended from Aug. 1 through Aug. 16 due to the La Cañada Honda Bridge Replacement Project.

As California’s high speed rail project lays its first tracks after spending billions of dollars since 2006, Washington officials are already looking at lessons to be learned on how to avoid a similar outcome as they work on their own multi-state, multi-national bullet train.
