WE JUMPED THE GUN BY A MONTH: CONSTRUCTION OF THE CARDIFF RAIL TRAIL STARTED ON APRIL 30

SANDAG confirmed that work started at the end of April. They sent out a notice to that effect in email and now multiple press articles have confirmed that the project is underway. A link to one of the articles (in the Encinitas Advocate / Del Mar Times) is below.

Apologies for the false start in March; we were passing along the latest info that we had.

SANDAG is setting the expectation that the new trail will open in early 2019, with the completion date roughly aligned with the end of the double tracking project. With that said, we should probably be realistic and expect some delays; even so, it seems likely that the trail will be ready at some point in 2019.
