[quote=AN]IF this actually goes through, the whole thing won’t be complete for another 20-30 years. There is talk of the project being canned due to not enough ridership based on the projection.[/quote]
Ye gads, if I’m still around by then, I might be too old to navigate the stations … lol!
I don’t think their WILL be enough ridership on the Merced to Gilroy link (and this would be expensive to build). SJC and SFO are ALREADY SERVED by cheap Southwest Airlines. If they bring the tracks from Stockton to the Alameda County bayfront, even to the San Leandro or Hayward BART stations, the ridership will be there, IMO. The rest of the routes look okay but couldn’t tell if the Stockton to SAC route served Lodi. If not, it probably should take a jog there, as well.
