纽森说,他将专注于有限公司mpletion of the first 171 miles between Merced and Bakersfield.

加利福尼亚州高速铁路管理局面临着自我报告的成本提高，从670亿美元，再加上四年的时间表延迟到2033年的773亿美元。

CEO Brian Kelly released a statement: “The Governor has called for setting a priority on getting high speed rail operating in the only region in which we have commenced construction—the Central Valley. We are eager to meet this challenge and expand the project’s economic impact in the Central Valley."

Kelly added that "Importantly, [Newsom] also reaffirmed our commitment to complete the environmental work statewide, to meet our 'bookend' investments in the Bay Area and Los Angeles and to pursue additional federal and private funding for future project expansion. We welcome this direction and look forward to continuing the important work on this transformative project.”

中西部高速铁路协会执行董事里克·哈尼什（Rick Harnish）表示，狭窄的重点可能会为连接湾区和南加州的更广泛目标带来长期利益。“如果他们真的可以专注于默塞德和贝克斯菲尔德之间的220英里 /小时的火车，并在两端固定连接器之间，那么这将是变革性的。如果您将Amtrak的服务从奥克兰升级到梅塞德和梅塞德到萨克拉曼多，并每天增加几列火车，该怎么办？现在，您已经有了自动竞争时间到中央山谷的湾区。”

Some $3 billion in construction is underway.

The first segment, CP1, covering 32 miles from Madera to Fresno, has passed the 50% mark and has 33 major structures, including two trenches and three viaducts.

官员们说，在65英里的CP2-3细分市场中，设计几乎完整，已经获得了850个包裹的一半以上，但2020年春季的截止日期将被推迟。

美国公共交通协会also took an optimistic approach, stating that it “appreciates and applauds ... Newsom's commitment to the long-term goal of bringing high-speed rail to California and to continued improvements of local and regional public transportation systems. The Governor said that the state will focus first on completing the 119-mile Central Valley phase in the near term, while completing environmental assessments and seeking funding for the entire project."

它补充说：“迄今为止所进行的投资创造了数千个工作，并将通过清洁，有效的公共交通工具改善移动性。”
