The recession and sheer cost of operations and climate change ended CEMEX here.
Plan are being discussed, true.
Prop 116 taxpayer dollars SPECIFICALLY for passenger rail transit, you filthy liar.
Single track is fine, used throughout the world, idiot.
The most recent studies conclude that rail is feasible, that's why we're keeping the tracks.
There are billions available in FAST Act funds.
There is NO money to buyout IPH and pay back the state, None, No money for that.
You must have missed the December 8 hearing, it's on CTV online.
