Passes!!! / Sunday Train: Is State Sen. Simitian aiming to kill High Speed Rail in California? | 9 comments (9 topical, editorial, 0 hidden)
Where the money goes (none / 1)
In response to complaints, including from Senators Simitian and Lowenthal, that too much was being spent in the less heavily populated central valley, and not enough money was being spent in the more populous LA Basin and Bay Area, the revised Business Plan includes "early investment" in the bookends, to help prepare them for blended operation of HSR alongside more local rail services.

Am I reading too much into this if I think of opportunities for the local construction industry?
