Summary
California High-Speed Rail has abandoned plans for a downtown Bakersfield station, at least temporarily. This alignment change will likely trigger revised environmental, engineering, and design work for an alternative station location.
Details
Station alignment changes typically generate follow-on procurement for environmental studies, alternatives analysis, preliminary engineering, and community outreach consulting.
New consulting and design contracts likely needed for alternative station siting, environmental re-evaluation, and updated civil/structural engineering work
