BART's extension into the South Bay has received a significant funding boost this week. The Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) has approved a $375 million allocation for the project. The extension is part of California's high-speed rail project, which has already received over $20 billion in state and federal subsidies and is now projected to cost over $128 billion. Meanwhile, Los Angeles is also building new rail lines, raising questions about whether riders will choose public transit over cars. On a different note, California's $100 billion electric bullet train is set to be fully solar-powered.
