Rails To Highways?

"An abandoned rail line would become a major new thoroughfare moving 40,000 cars a day between the Garden Grove (22) Freeway and the heart of Santa Ana under a plan being discussed by state and local transportation officials. The four-mile route, now a dirt path, would run behind homes and businesses along the defunct Pacific Electric rail corridor. It would be "a small expressway," said Jim Beil, a Caltrans division chief for programs and project management." Neighbors aren't so sure about the proposed route.
