Everything You Need to Know About the Rail & Trail Projects in Santa Cruz County
June 18, 2024 /
In 2022, after the citizens defeated an anti-transit ballot measure calling for ripping out out the tracks, Santa Cruz County moved forward with plans for both the Rail and Trail projects. Electric passenger rail will run next to a multi-purpose trail, side-by-side in the Santa Cruz Branch Line rail corridor. These rail and trail project will revitalize our transportation system, providing a much needed traffic-free corridor that will be an alternative to the 90 minutes of traffic our county experiences on HWY 1.
The Rail & Trail projects will provide an economical way to get to work and reduce traffic. They’ll also take a chunk out of Santa Cruz County’s greenhouse gas emissions since 60% come from transportation. – Sally Arnold, Board Member, Friends of the Rail & Trail.
