So close… ok, maybe not

As we are all aware, Proposition 1A from last November’s ballot–aka the California High-Speed Rail proposition–passed amidst this great economic collapse. Many voters were conflicted. We all knew that we had a budget shortfall and at that time we were at least entering a bad recession, but we also wanted this infrastructure put in place. Well, we passed the referendum to budget the rail project after failing multiple times in the past. But we are no where near getting this project off the ground. As reported on SocketSite, the current plans for the Transbay Terminal may be obsolete sooner than designers planned. High-speed rail has low-speed planning, and with the bigger problems facing our state and nation, I think we can forget about high-speed rail for a while.
