> Sadly, Newson actually cut off the ends so now that it's going to be only in the Central Valley. Is this actually the case though? While so many outlets jumped on the news to say the project was cancelled, looking into it further it looks like design work will continue outside of the central valley, just not construction. There is too much partisan interference being run by the Trump administration at the federal level, construction will hopefully continue with the next administration in 2020. https://sf.streetsblog.org/2019/02/13/editorial-california-high-speed-rail-is-still-on/ https://sf.streetsblog.org/2019/02/13/editorial-california-h... > Of course I think it's a political stunt on his part where he probably figures if we build the Central Valley bit it'll be politically nuts not to complete the ends where all the population state lives later. From my understanding that was the plan from the start. Start in the central valley where the construction can bring the most stimulus, land acquisition and design would be more open, and force the route to be kept to.
