Document Description
The proposed project is a railroad infrastructure improvement and construction project located within an existing 25 mile railroad corridor in the Tehachapi Pass. The project would construct an additional track along two of nine single-track segments that are located in the Tehachapi Pass. The Walong to Marcel segment spans a distance of 1.01 miles, and the Cliff Siding Extension segment spans a distance of .37 miles, which will result in "douple tracking" of a total distance of 1.38 miles. The project would also extend and improve existing culverts as needed to accommodate the additional track.
