new batch of money dispensed

Here is what I'm most excited by

OCTA has been awarded $39.4 million in funding to purchase 33 hydrogen fuel-cell buses, the replacement of 10 gas-powered paratransit vehicles with zero-emission vehicles, new bike storage at the Santa Ana Regional Transportation Center, and signal priority for buses along the 12-mile Brave! 543 route;

OCTA, alongside the agency in charge of the Los Angeles – San Diego – San Luis Obispo Rail Corridor, has secured $5.5 million for the potential realignment of an 11-mile segment of passenger rail right-of-way which runs along a crumbling coastal bluff in San Clemente. This corridor was responsible for a recent shutdown of Metrolink and Amtrak Pacific Surfliner service, and is expected to be replace by an inland rail tunnel

the High Desert Corridor Joint Powers Authority is set to receive $8 million toward a proposed high-speed rail segment connecting Palmdale and Victor Valley - a key link between the future Brightline and California High-Speed Rail systems;

The Riverside County Transportation Commission and Metrolink have been awarded $15.5 million toward the construction of a new segment of mainline track between Moreno Valley and Perris

having two tracks is needed to have service every 30 mins

Metrolink has been awarded $10 million to study strategies for improving safety and reliability on its existing equipment, while also exploring how to reduce emissions.
