- The California High-Speed Rail Authority is responsible for planning, designing, building and operation of the nation’s first high-speed rail system. The following video offers viewers details on how they can provide input on the Authority’s Draft Environmental Impact Report/Environmental Impact Statement (Draft EIR/EIS). The Draft EIR/EIS addresses many topic areas, including traffic, air quality, noise, vibration, aesthetics and more. The comment period closes on Thursday, December 1, 2022.

How come private enterprise, Brightline, is going to connect Los Angeles to Las Vegas in 3 years while California is still struggling to rebuild roadbed that is already sinking into the desert floor?
@@tonyburzio4107
1. You lied about the route. Brightline West will travel between Rancho Cucamonga and Las Vegas, not Los Angeles.
2. You lied about the expected time to completion. Service is slated to begin in 2026, not 2025.
3. The roadbed is not sinking into the desert, it is being overtaken by desert by the wind and erosion. These are normal issues that Caltrans takes care of. They are not "struggling". These are just normal maintenance requirements that Caltrans works with.
4. Brightline West is proposed to have a distance of 260 miles. With no mountains in the way. The California High Speed Rail has more length in just the Central Valley section, the full length will be 800 miles, and it will have to pass through 6 difference mountain ranges.
5. California High Speed Rail will be run as a public service, and as such, it does not need to make a profit. Brightline West is private, and needs to make a profit, otherwise it will go out of business and may have to be sold off anyway. This also means that the public has a say in the construction of the CHSR, not Brightline West.
Hey guys! Please add your social links and links to the project and public comment pages in your description 💕
Go CAHSR!
There is such a pent up demand for transit from Merced to Bakersfield!
I’m 61, sure hope I get to ride on this!
You probably will.
I love California High Speed Rail.
Let’s go California High Speed Rail.
You guys need to hire more people asap to get this project finished sooner. We look like amateurs when it comes to public transport
They just said they can't afford track, so more people won't help.
@@tonyburzio4107 Where did they say this? Cite your sources.
The state of california and the federal government have never fully funded CAHSR. Still waiting.
Yes and yeah California High Speed Rail.
I pray for California High Speed Rail.
I want 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.
Be sure to comment on the eieio.
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.
San Diego? Did you ever see the cockamamie idea for elevated trains all the way down I15? That will take more concrete than the Great Wall of China used in brick!
@@tonyburzio4107 we aren't living in the 1st century

Finish California High Speed Rail.
There is a very good chance that Brightline will connect LA to Orlando Florida before any track is laid on California High Speed Rail.
Brightline has no intentions to connect LA to Orlando.
I'm pretty sure tracks have already been laid down in CHSR
Choose the shortest, most straight route possible and JFDI (Just Duckling Do It)... built it.
Where it is in tunnels... it has zero impact.
Where it is above ground... build the Chinese way on pillars/pylons that consume less than ONE sqM per Pillar at a height of 15m above ground level. One sqM of ground every 50m is Insignificant.
These Environmental Impact etc etc studies and the NIMBY's bla bla bla = only have one function in all project... INCREASED COSTS!
TRUE! Less planning, more building!
@@whoisthatkidd2212 Railways have been being constructed for over 250 years... YES we know how to build them. IF those in the USA do not, hire the Chinese 'Again' as they did to build the Chicago to SanFran Transcontinental Railway.
For those unaware, the workforce was primarily Chinese.
Also the land does not have to be fully purchased for two paths 3.5m (15ft) wide... when built on pillars, only the 1sqM spots have to be purchased as the Railway is very very above any agricultural equipment etc.
15m (50ft) high viaducts have clearance for Anything to pass under it.
That's grade a nonsense. CAHSR is already using the absolute shortest route possible. They chose the two viable crossings into LA and the Bay Area (Tehachapi and Pacheco) and connected them with a straight line through the Central Valley. That's the CAHSR route in a nutshell. A lot of people keep trying to lie that a straight line from SF to LA would be somehow better, but that's an insane proposition. The entire route would be under mountains and would cost a couple of orders of magnitude more! That's not 10x but 100x more!
The entire CAHSR right of way in the Central Valley already is either viaduct or raised embankment. The raised embankment is both cheaper and vastly superior in an earthquake, which is exactly why they chose this method! Everything that isn't raised embankment is viaduct.
The environmental impact reports are literally require by law. That's both Federal and State law. It would be illegal to not do EIR's!
In other words, read more, bud!
@@whoisthatkidd2212 Yeah, because that always works out sooooooo well! You people are such clowns!
Brightline is starting construction from LA to Las Vegas, permits in hand, completion in three years. It's not NIMBYs, it's NUMNUTS causing the problem at CAHSR.
