Chump change compared to the $10 billion bullet train between Fresno and Bakersfield. If you work in Fresno you live in Fresno. I doubt there will be more than 20 commuters a day between the two cities.
This is the first leg of the train from LA to San Francisco, which will never get built.

I have not found a break out of the Bakersfield to Fresno cost, 10 Billion? But an over all cost of 77 billion with all the various Spurs. Of course this estimate is up 13 billion in just the last two years. Since the boondoggle won’t even be partially in service for another 11 years it will be 100 billion before it’s ever operational. People belong in jail as this was sold to the California Rubes at a 44 Billion price tag. It didn’t get my vote.
But ... maybe this “induced demand” will really kick in.
They say right there it is a “wholly predictable phenomenon”...
