In a nutshell, phase one is going to link LA with SF via the peninsula & central valley.. Phase two splits off from Fresno to head up to Sacramento.

Says the Arizonan that won't pay a dime.
It takes about 6 hours to drive from LA to SF and about 3 hours to fly when you factor in the wait time at airports and the drive from SFO to downtown.

We aren't getting any less crowded and we can't build any more airports down here.
I'll gladly pay $200 to get from A to B in one stroke.

They'll probably use the Cal Train lines from San Mateo north. No one wants a protracted battle over eminent domain.

Heh one stroke h: Anyways public transportation and mass transit are what we really need in CA, not more roads.
