The Trolley Question, Part 3: The Two-Mile Gap Published

The 2010 Mid-Coast Trolley extension stops two miles short of Pacific Beach because the FTA cost-effectiveness formula fixed the UCSD/I-5 alignment in the 1995 DEIS / 2001 Record of Decision — before voters ever saw a ballot. The 2004 TransNet Expenditure Plan literally specified 'I-5 corridor from Old Town to UCSD/UTC, $660 million.' SANDAG staff internally revised TransNet revenue $1.3B downward 11 months before the 67% supermajority vote cleared the 2/3 threshold by 0.3 points — and never disclosed it. A sitting SANDAG Vice Chair served on the Working Group for a period the agency will not publicly disclose.
