Document Description
To enhance intercity and commuter rail service and to promote greater transit connectivity between the Central Valley and the Bay Area, SJRRC is proposing to expand ACE service to Ceres and Merced. Physical Improvements would include addition of station, parking and key track/infrastructure improvements and commencement of initial service of expansion of existing trains, construction of additional track improvements, such as the addition of a new main track, at specific areas of train congestion, and possibly additional parking improvement necessary because of increased ridership, which would allow further expansion of service beyond the initial service.
