  • Billions of dollars in new federal funding is coming to a major public transit project in San Francisco. When it's finished, both Caltrain and high-speed rail will one day be able to call the Bay Area their Northern California home.

    GET IT BUILT! For a region which is supposedly the world hub of innovative technology and progressive culture, we should have the BEST public transportation systems out there!
    Serious question though: will this project include an underground pedestrian tunnel to Embarcadero BART (like that between Union Square MUNI and Powell BART) to make transfers easier during bad weather?

      Homelessness, open air drugs and post-COVID city abandonment are excellent examples of the benefits of progressive culture.

      Transbay terminal is useless. Never used it in over 3 decades... and never actually put my eyes on the structure. That's how useless it is.
      Are you going to get BART and MUNI light rail to build a spur route to it for free? Why does Caltrain get all the fun for this useless project?
      Level the building and build a park. Keep improving public transport.

    This is long overdue and fantastic! It's about time our federal government seriously invests in public rail transit. We are so far behind the rest of the modern world. We have a lot of catching up to do, but the USA is more than capable of meeting and exceeding the challenge.

    We need this project done but really please don’t overcommit funding to projects. It makes contracts inflate and contractors take advantage of this and charge more for their quotes. Make sure every single bit is accounted for but ngl 3.4 billion seems excessive
