California's High-Speed Rail Gets Major Update
Brightline West announced an updated list of its field investigation sites as construction continues on a high-speed rail line between Las Vegas and Southern California.
According to a release from the rail company on Monday, four additional project areas have been identified "within the proposed rail corridor" along Interstate 15. Field investigation work—which consists of geotechnical borings and samplings, utility potholing and land surveying—will primarily take place during daytime hours. Some work may be conducted at night to "minimize" traffic interruptions, Brightline West said.
