Today, San Francisco-area transportation officials will testify before the California Senate Transportation and Housing Committee to outline the region’s transportation needs and comment on the November ballot’s $19.9 billion transportation bond measure.
The ballot measure would authorize the state to sell about $20 billion of general obligation bonds to fund transportation projects, including $4 billion for capital improvements to local transit services, the state’s intercity rail service and transit facilities, and $1.5 billion to increase transit security and improve grade crossing safety.
