Notas do Editor
For long distances, high-speed trains will provide “ door-to-door ” travel times similar to air, and will be twice as fast as highway travel. For intermediate travel, like Fresno to Los Angeles, high-speed trains would provide quicker “ door-to-door ” travel times than either air or highway. By 2020, high-speed trains will be faster than air travel in total “ door-to-door ” travel time from Los Angeles to San Francisco. *****Insert specific example line haul times tailored to audience*************
Like past major infrastructure projects – California’s water, university and highway systems -- the high-speed train system would be an economic stimulant and smart investment in California’s infrastructure. Creating 300,000 “job years” of employment during construction In addition, a high-speed train system is forecasted to improve California’s economy, resulting in 450,000 more permanent jobs by 2035. Cost benefit analysis based upon “investment grade” ridership forecasts concluded that the high-speed system benefits would be more than two times its costs.
