Industry News · Aug 03

Summary

California High-Speed Rail Authority has dropped the downtown Bakersfield station option, shifting the station location north of 7th Standard Road. This represents a significant alignment/station siting change that will trigger updated environmental, design, and planning work.

Details

Alignment and station changes typically generate follow-on procurement needs for environmental re-evaluation, civil/structural design updates, and right-of-way acquisition consulting in the affected corridor.

New station siting will require updated environmental review, design engineering, and land acquisition work in the north Bakersfield area
