The California High-Speed Rail Authority is set to host a virtual community meeting to discuss the ongoing developments of the nation’s first high-speed rail system, specifically the Los Angeles to Anaheim (LA-A) Project Section. This approximately 30-mile corridor aims to connect Los Angeles Union Station to the Anaheim Regional Transportation Intermodal Center, utilizing the existing rail line that services both freight and passenger trains.
The LA-A Project Section will cross through several cities, including Los Angeles, Vernon, Commerce, Bell, Montebello, Pico Rivera, Norwalk, Santa Fe Springs, La Mirada, Buena Park, Fullerton, and Anaheim, along with parts of unincorporated Los Angeles County. The statewide initiative is anticipated to foster economic growth, promote environmental sustainability, and generate job opportunities, while enhancing regional and local rail infrastructure to address California’s transportation needs in the 21st century.
The virtual meeting will focus on the LA-A Preferred Alternative, as outlined in the forthcoming Draft Environmental Impact Report/Environmental Impact Statement (Draft EIR/EIS). Attendees can expect presentations on various project features including grade separations, station designs, Metrolink station relocations, and local safety enhancements.
The Authority is currently finalizing the technical studies related to the project and plans to release the Draft EIR/EIS in late 2025. This meeting will also guide stakeholders through the public comment process once the report is available.
Details for the virtual community meeting are as follows:
- Date: Wednesday, September 3, 2025
- Time: 6:00 p.m. – 7:30 p.m.
- Registration: Scan the QR code or visit bit.ly/CAHSR-LA-A-CM
Spanish and Korean interpretation services will be provided. Community members are encouraged to participate and learn more about this significant transportation project.

This will only create various uninvited transients with trash and unwanted graffiti as well as a open invitation for would be thief’s. So, inevitably would need to increase the security for travelers.
Why not invest in what we have and stop the WASTE of california tax payers dollars…lets clean up our own back yards first!
ED response: Maggie – Hope you will tune into the information session and voice those concerns.
That’s not even a concern with our existing long-distance train carriers, Amtrak and Metrolink. Not sure why it’s be a concern with CA HSR.
Part of the reason CA HSR has gone past timeline and over budget is fighting frivolous lawsuits by those who want to hinder its progress for no good reason, not because the project itself is infeasible.
Maybe you could attend the meeting and learn what is actually happening with CA HSR.
That’s like saying John Wayne airport attracts uninvited transients to Orange County. Amtrak and Metrolink don’t have transients because they are quickly thrown off the trains. Metrolink, Amtrak, and I guarantee Cal HSR will not operate like LA Metro
What in the world are you talking about? Seems like you have depression era visions of hobos riding the rails. Or something.
Maggie – I don’t agree. Other countries have high speed rail that works. I think we can make it work here and I am looking forward to it. It is a huge investment but one that I think will be worthwhile.
What to do about the transient homeless population is not connected to hispeed rail and is a whole separate issue that I agree we could be doing better to come up with a solution for. And better oversight of where that money goes is needed as is shown by the OC Supervisor Do fraud case. Seems with the money already spent on the homeless subject we should have a better system in place.
