California High Speed Rail Authority Meeting In Anaheim - Jan 20

The California High-Speed Rail Authority (CHSRA) is planning high-speed train service for travel between major metropolitan areas of California. The high-speed train is proposed to connect Anaheim to San Francisco in less than three hours, with future connections that include San Diego and Sacramento.

The Los Angeles to Anaheim high-speed train section proposes to travel adjacent to the existing LOSSAN (Los Angeles to San Diego) Rail Corridor from Los Angeles Union Station to the future Anaheim Regional Transportation Intermodal Center (ARTIC).

The Alternatives Analysis process is underway for this section to identify the alignment and station locations to be further studied during the environmental review and preliminary design process. Public involvement is an important part of developing this project. The CHSRA will host a public open house meeting in the City of Anaheim to provide the community with a project update, information about the proposed alternative alignments, design options, and station locations being considered  specific to the City and details pertaining to the environmental process.

The open house will also provide stakeholders an opportunity to speak directly with members of the project team, ask questions and provide feedback.

When:   Wednesday, January 20, 2010.  Drop in any time between 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

*A presentation will occur at 5:30 p.m.
