The San Diego region's large $160 billion rail expansion plan might be in jeopardy after more financially conservative future members won their November elections.
As part of an effort to cut down on car traffic, the expansive plan would build a transit connection to San Diego International Airport, fix rail tracks along Del Mar bluffs and kickstart a 200-mile commuter rail system.
Funding for the project would come from sales tax hikes, per-mile fees on drivers, and, potentially, money from the Biden administration's infrastructure plan.
