This is an archive of the Open House website that was available from May 29, 2020 to August 31, 2020. The Authority created this website to provide enhanced access to the Draft EIR/EIS in response to health and safety directives concerning the novel coronavirus. This website remains available to the public, although visitors may no longer submit a comment on the Draft EIR/EIS, schedule an appointment, or participate in a webinar (these features are no longer active on this site).
The Burbank to Los Angeles Draft EIR/EIS evaluates the impacts and benefits of introducing high-speed rail between Burbank and Los Angeles Union Station and describes how to avoid, minimize, or mitigate project effects.
At this station, you can access the full environmental document and watch videos that explain how this detailed document is organized. See the Authority’s website for information about obtaining a copy of the Draft EIR/EIS.
