Economic Growth: The California high-speed rail project is a key driver of economic growth and job creation, benefiting disadvantaged communities and small businesses.
Investment Impact: From July 2006 to June 2023, the Authority invested $11.2 billion in planning and construction, generating significant economic activity, particularly in the Central Valley.
创造就业机会： The project has created 13,930 construction jobs, with 70 percent of these positions filled by Central Valley residents, and more than 10,000 jobs created in the last five years.
Labor Income and Economic Output: In Fiscal Year 2022-23, the project generated $940 million in labor income and $3 billion in economic impact. Long-term projections estimate nearly $79 billion in labor income and $203.6 billion in total economic output.
Green Jobs: The high-speed rail system will be solar-powered, creating job opportunities in solar power installation, maintenance, and management, as well as permanent positions in system operations and maintenance.
Disadvantaged Communities: The Authority focuses on enhancing communities, particularly disadvantaged communities, by providing economic opportunities, job training, and support for small businesses.
Diversity and Inclusion: Promoting diversity and equal opportunity is a core principle, with 847 small businesses, 292 DBEs, and 105 DVBEs working on the project. More than 200 of those small businesses are minority-owned.
