SPUR Supports an Ambitious Vision for the Future of Caltrain

Advocacy Letter

SPUR strongly recommends that the Peninsula Joint Powers Board adopt the 2040 Caltrain Long-Range Service Vision. The Peninsula and the Bay Area benefited tremendously from the good foresight and collaboration of San Mateo, Santa Clara and San Francisco Counties, who came together to purchase and run Caltrain in the 1980s. Now is the time to once again commit to a bigger vision for Caltrain. SPUR also encourages the Board to move forward with a process to develop an organizational vision that matches the scale of its service vision, and suggests four ways to structure that process.
