Will the new platforms be high-level? If so, will these be the first high ones in CA?

To say this complex does not look disabilities friendly is the understatement of the month.Makes me think of the proposal to put a MARC station for Bayview hospital in the middle of a NS railyard, over a long bridge.

Still, they're going to move the station itself closer to the tracks, which will be a good thing.

What's the latest engineering?

It's like it was designed by someone who did zero research on the realities of the area.scratchyX1 wrote: ↑Mon Apr 04, 2022 10:28 pm Wait, it's still happening ?MARC has nothing.
