NEWS RELEASE: California High-Speed Rail Authority Releases Draft Environmental Document for Los Angeles to Anaheim Section

December 5, 2025

The Los Angeles to Anaheim project section is the southernmost link of the first phase of the statewide high-speed rail system, connecting Los Angeles Union Station to the Anaheim Regional Transportation Intermodal Center, using the Los Angeles to Anaheim rail corridor that currently serves both freight and passenger service. The corridor travels through the cities of Los Angeles, Vernon, Commerce, Bell, Montebello, Pico Rivera, Norwalk, Santa Fe Springs, portions of unincorporated LA County, La Mirada, Buena Park, Fullerton, and Anaheim.

The Draft EIR/EIS evaluates a No Project Alternative and two Build Alternatives: Shared Passenger Track Alternative A, with a Light Maintenance Facility (LMF) at 26th Street and Shared Passenger Track Alternative B, with an LMF at 15th Street. The Authority’s Preferred Alternative is Shared Passenger Track Alternative A. Although not included in the Preferred Alternative, the Draft EIR/EIS also evaluates an option for one intermediate high-speed rail station, which would consist of adding a station platform and station facilities at either the Norwalk/Santa Fe Springs Metrolink Station or the Fullerton Metrolink/Amtrak Station.

The public review and comment period begins on December 5, 2025, and ends on February 3, 2026. Comments must be received electronically by 11:59 p.m. PST or postmarked by February 3, 2026. During the comment period, comments may be submitted in the following ways:
