Bakersfield Station Location Change — New Alignment 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 is a confirmed alignment/station decision change that will trigger updated environmental, design, and engineering work.
Details
A confirmed station relocation typically triggers supplemental environmental studies, updated civil and structural design scopes, and revised right-of-way acquisition work — all potential procurement opportunities.
New station location will require revised design, environmental review, and infrastructure planning contracts for the Bakersfield segment.
