Two local transit agencies Monday announced $100 million in state funding to advance the San Dieguito Bridge replacement, double track and special events platform project.
The North County Transit District and San Diego Association of Governments received the grant from the California Transit and Intercity Rail Capital Program to replace the 107-year-old bridge in Del Mar, add nearly a mile of double track and construct an events platform at the Del Mar Fairgrounds. The award is the largest from the Transit and Intercity Rail Capital Program from this cycle of funding.
The section of track is part of the Los Angeles-San Diego-San Luis Obispo intercity rail corridor, the second busiest rail corridor in the nation. The project is intended to replace the San Dieguito River Railway Bridge, add capacity for intercity rail and"provide a one-seat ride to popular attractions such as Del Mar Thoroughbred Club races, the San Diego County Fair, concerts," and other events at the fairgrounds, an agency joint statement reads.
