IN SUPPORT OF RAILROAD TO RAILROAD
GRADE SEPARATION PROJECT AT COLTON, CALIFORNIA
WHEREAS, the efficient movement of people and goods is essential to the health and
economy of the region and the nation, and
WHEREAS, freight railroads play a pivotal role in interstate commerce, and
WHEREAS, the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach aze the major ports of entry on the
Pacific Coast, and
WHEREAS, tremendous growth in raii_road operations, particularly intermodal and other
through-freight, has resulted in significant community impacts, and
WHEREAS, the demand for rail shipments will continue to grow with the expansion of the
Ports, the completion of the Alameda Corridor, and population growth in the region, and
WHEREAS, the main lines of the Burlington Northem Santa Fe and the Union Pacific, the
only major railroads operating in Southern California, carry the majority of rail freight traffic
between the Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles, the rest of the nation, and Mexico on their routes
through the Inland Empire, and
WHEREAS, these railroads must cross each other at Colton Junction, and
WHEREAS, Colton Junction has been identified as the major choke point for rail traffic in
the region, where an average delay of fourteen minutes per train triggers substantial congestion and
blockages along the corridors, and
WHEREAS, diesel emissions caused by multiple locomotives idling along the corridors
while waiting to cross Colton Junction further exacerbate the unhealthful air quality in the South
Coast Air Basin, the worst non-attainment area in the nation, and
WHEREAS, railroad congestion has resulted in many freight shipments being shifted to
diesel trucks on the region's already congested highways, and
WHEREAS, railroad congestion in Southern Califomia has caused expensive delays to local
shippers as well as to manufacturers and others throughout the country, and
WHEREAS, these same main line freight corridors are utilized for the provision of
commuter passenger rail (Metrolink) and intercity passenger rail (Amtrak) service, whose operations
are consistently impacted by freight congestion, and
WHEREAS, insufficient operating capacity has delayed the implementation of other
passenger rail services, including services between Los Angeles aad the Coachella Valley, and
