San Clemente rail line may relocate
The California State Transportation Agency plans to initiate a study to assess options for relocating the fragile rail line along the San Clemente coastline, which faces threats from erosion, landslides, and storm damage. The existing Pacific Surfliner railway, part of the LOSSAN Corridor, has experienced repeated disruptions, prompting concerns about its long-term viability amid rising sea levels and severe weather. The study, expected to take several months, will evaluate engineering, environmental, and community impacts, with relocation potentially costing over $5 billion; currently, efforts focus on protecting the existing line through various stabilization measures.
