The Del Mar Tunnel CEQA comment process is now open, but NIMBYs want to shut down the US's #2 rail corridor instead of saving it from falling into the sea. Tell SANDAG by June 30th to support the fast Crest Canyon alignment and #LeaveRoomForCatenary! @ridesd.org docs.google.com/document/d/1...
No need for every agency to reinvent the wheel. Objective design standards like these are one reason why Italy has much lower costs than California - that's why it's on our list of project delivery reforms. #LeaveRoomForCatenary #JustTransitionForCaltrans calelectricrail.org/transit-capi...
I haven't written a public comment in quite a while, but I'm giving this one a shot. #BuildTheTunnels #LeaveRoomForCatenary
🚨 Action Alert 🚨
Tell SANDAG to #BuildTheTunnels and #LeaveRoomForCatenary this Friday at 9 (email before 4 today). NIMBYs are trying to shut down the Surfliner, but we demand higher speeds and electrification instead! @ridesd.org docs.google.com/document/d/1...
SANDAG is meeting to discuss Del Mar Tunnel alignments this Friday. SANDAG needs to #LeaveRoomForCatenary in the tunnels - big investments like this should
come with the big increases in speed and frequency only electrification provides.
Catenary is the superior technology for the Surfliner. Time to electrify the Coaster and #LeaveRoomForCatenary in the Del Mar tunnel!
Gotta make sure they #LeaveRoomForCatenary here too!
One cause for concern: on the map from the State Rail Plan, the Surfliner/Coaster south of Anaheim is NOT shown as electrified, despite CalSTA's involvement. Let's make sure we change that - LOSSAN tunnels must #LeaveRoomForCatenary!
And with wires planned between LA and Anaheim, we should do the rest of the Surfliner, from Santa Barbara to San Diego. Electrifying Anaheim-San Diego will accelerate high speed rail into San Diego, currently not planned for decades - but we need wires in the tunnels! #LeaveRoomForCatenary
