Summary
California High-Speed Rail Authority has dropped the downtown Bakersfield station alignment and shifted the station location north of 7th Standard Road. This represents a significant scope change that will likely trigger new environmental, engineering, and design work for the revised alignment.
Details
Station realignment creates near-term consulting and engineering procurement opportunities for updated environmental documents, preliminary engineering, and community outreach for the new location.
New or amended contracts likely needed for updated environmental review, civil/structural engineering, station design, and right-of-way acquisition at the revised location
