The sooner this is built... the better!!! It needs to connect Sacramento, San Francisco, San Jose, Fresno, Bakersfield, and Los Angeles to complete the 1st important step As quickly as possible it also needs to connect to Anaheim and San Diego.
Hopefully, you're under 50. Otherwise, you might not be alive if this ever gets completed. And please, don't call it HIGH SPEED. That designation disappeared long ago. It will take similar time to complete LA-SF route as traditional rail. That is if somebody actually coughs up another 300-500 Billion. Babababoondoggle!
Its a mess because republicans and several farmers and the city of Kingsburg did not want it going through the city. Law suit after law suit delayed it and now its expensive. Look at the map near Kinsgburg, it detours around the city. stupid city government plays politics rather than help their city.
Did you watch the video? This person is an expert, they worked on many projects. They started their career in highways at caltrans, and used that strong foundation to get work in bigger and bigger projects, eventually working on major rail projects until finally working on the biggest rail project in california. Also, he didn't "design" it, he worked on environmental review and leadership.
A project manager knows NOTHING. He just hold meetings meetings meetings. The longer the project drags on the more money opportunities. Should interview an engineer.
Apparently it's you who doesn't know much. Project managers are critical on any job involving more than a few people, and this job has tens of thousands of people working on it. Without project managers, you can't plan, you can't budget, and you won't get anything done. Everything from building a house to sending man to the moon to building the pyramids depends or depended on project managers.
@@cmmartti he rightly answered, the age of the project planning, just planning, is as old as his xx daughters. So, this project has been making noise for 10 years, still planning. Yeah, roadmap roadmap
@@cmmartti One reason this may be taking so long is they are trying to please too many special interests making it more a social program rather than a construction project. Sorry, but I disagree with you on two points. 1) HSR world-wide has been built for decades so there is expertise doesn't need to be "developed from scratch". 2) CHSR construction began January 2015 ... 7.5 years ago! I am 200% for CHRS which needs more funding, faster. Can anyone please answer this question? How long does a $105B project take when yearly spending is $1B - $2.2B?

And San Bernardino along the way
I want California High Speed Rail.
I love California High Speed Rail.
Get California High Speed Rail and get California High Speed Rail now from San Francisco to Los Angeles and Anaheim and Sacramento to San Diego.
Yes and yeah California High Speed Rail.
I pray for California High Speed Rail.
Build California High Speed Rail and build California High Speed Rail now from San Francisco to Los Angeles and Anaheim and Sacramento to San Diego.
Prime example of why this project is such a mess. You hired a Caltrans Freeway guy to design a high speed rail system.

@@cmmartti ok, I thought I heard this.
Max speed 110 mph.
They are talking connecting with Caltrain, etc
If 110 stop calling it HSR.
@@cmmartti ok, 220 mph. We will see.
