Bakersfield Station Location Change — Alignment Shift North of 7th Standard Road
Linked Projects
Summary
California High-Speed Rail Authority has dropped the downtown Bakersfield station option and shifted the station location north of 7th Standard Road. This alignment change will likely trigger new environmental review, design, and engineering work for the revised corridor.
Details
Alignment changes of this scale typically require supplemental environmental review, updated civil and station design work, and potential new right-of-way acquisition — creating near-term consulting and engineering procurement opportunities.
Likely toward updated environmental, design, and engineering contracts for the revised Bakersfield station alignment
