PALMDALE –The city of Palmdale is inviting the public to attend an open house meeting for the High-Speed Rail Station Area Plan project on Wednesday Oct. 2, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the Chimbole Cultural Center, located at 38350 Sierra Highway in Palmdale.
This meeting will allow the public an additional opportunity to preview the Draft Station Area Plan (SAP) and Palmdale Transit Area Specific Plan (PTASP) documents before they are made final.
Since the last meeting in August, the city has reviewed and addressed public comments received and is ready to present these documents to the public before the public hearings take place and the project concludes.
“Please join the city of Palmdale in finalizing this transformational plan,” said Transportation/Strategic Initiatives Manager Mike Behen. “ We’d love to hear from you as your comments, suggestions, and thoughts are essential to the project’s success.”

We don’t need a hi-speed train from LA to SFO now, but in the future the need will grow for it. At least securing right of ways for the future will be astronomically cheaper if done early on. Getting this to the AV is needed to connect to the privately funded train going to Las Vegas. Eventually we will catch up with the rest of the world.

Come on it’s just more waste of taxpayer money

this looks cool, but where is this going? to Burbank? not everyone that lives in the AV works in that area. I would love to use public transportation to commute to work but the reality is, public transportation is not well designed to meet the public needs. It will take me about two hours to get from the AV to the place I work in the San Fernando Valley and I am sure i’m not the only one that feels this way.
What is the point of this high speed rail station? I was under the impression that the whole high speed rail to SFO had been cancel. Where are all these people in the AV going to travel for work? Bakersfield?
It almost sounds like another great place for homeless people to call home…

I’ll be levitating before this becomes reality. A fun time will be had by all.

What time is your flight?

I hope the project is completed soon because I really want to ride the hi-speed train from LA to SFO.
