The Coalition for Safer Trains is a group of San Diego area stakeholders dedicated to preserving the north coastal San Diego community. We continue to advocate for the preservation and safety of our coastal communities, as well as the lagoons along the path of the rail corridor.
We are in support of SANDAG’s plan to move the rail line from its current location on the eroding coastal bluffs, to a safer location inland. We are aware that various locations are under consideration for a tunnel to replace the tracks. After evaluating SANDAG’s proposed alignments, we have serious concerns about their favored proposed routes. It is our goal that you review their proposal and understand how it trades one dangerous route for another -- unnecessarily.
Below you will find our official Letter to SANDAG, critical safety information regarding Rail Incidents in our region, as well as a Summary of the Impacts each proposed alignment would have on the community. We are also featuring a video showing the proposed Northern Yellow Line.
