An HSR corridor alternative to the Los Angeles/San Francisco corridor line.
Use the Belmont/Tracy proposed HSR corridor instead of the existing one planned between Gilroy and Merced.
The required tunnel miles for the Belmont/Tracy division corridor are 16.6 (two sections) and 26 miles (one section) for Gilroy/Merced planned tunnel.
The passenger transport for the Belmont/Tracy corridor is much higher than the Gilroy line. This corridor is exclusive double tracked for the HSR, no impeding of freight traffic. Some of existing rail corridor segments are in use, and some under new mountainous land.
Use tunnel muck for corridor fill and others to establish housing land.
