University of California, San Diego - San Diego Trolley

San Diego Trolley

Sandag and the Metropolitan Transit System are currently in a major development to bring San Diego Trolley service to the local area. The project will extend the existing Blue Line north from Downtown San Diego to UCSD and the University City Area. The extension will give the UCSD campus two trolley stations, East and West. One major goal of the project is to ease traffic and parking on the campus and to make it quick and convenient for students. There is also a proposed station at the VA hospital just south of UCSD. Construction is set to begin in 2014, and is scheduled to be completed by 2017, and is expected to begin trolley service in 2018. This project was first proposed in 1994 but as of 2012 is finally underway.
