Economic Impact of the California High-Speed Rail Project

Join the webinar on April 1st to learn more about economic impacts of the California High-Speed Rail project. The California High-Speed Rail Authority (Authority), is responsible for planning, designing, building and operating the nation’s first high-speed rail system. California high-speed rail will connect the megaregions of the state, contribute to economic development and a cleaner environment, create jobs and preserve agricultural and protected lands. With construction underway, and the transition of the California High-Speed Rail Authority from planning to a project development organization, the economic benefit of these activities is substantially growing every year. Starting with just a few employees over a decade ago, the project now supports thousands of jobs across all functions—from planning and environmental clearance to engineering and construction. This investment has spurred economic benefits around California and across the country. Register here: https://hsr-ca-gov.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZArceitrTorHNZmOhG0QXX9E1HE...
