All,
The XpressWest project will be updating the Palmdale City Council Chambers this Tuesday, September 18 at 9:00am.
Other projects that may update the chambers as well are the CA-HSR, the East-West 220 freeway corridor project, Metrolink, etc... and possible discussion of the new proposed route for CAHSR through the mountains to the proposed Burbank airport station.
Please consider that either XpressWest and/or CAHSR will bring lots of changes to the area. Some good and some not so good. We encourage all of the readers to attend.
Keep Flying On The Ground!

CAL-TRANS updates E-220 High Desert Corridor Page
All,
It appears that Cal-Trans has quietly updated its page for the High Desert Project with a few new links to some high quality links. (be fore-warned that these are LARGE Files).
http://www.dot.ca.gov/dist07/travel/projects/details.php?id=11
These links cover everything from multiple options for the Palmdale inter-change, including the "proposed but lacking money" XpressWest connections to the CA-HSR system, and the entire route of the E-220 route that the XpressWest will follow in the median to Victorville.
It also shows where the Freeway will run and "split" the Victorville State Run Prison with the Right Of Way down the middle of the street. But, as you can see there is a possible variation to route to the South of the prison. And how close the E-220 will border the SCLA project as well.
You can also find the Power point presentations for the updated variations here:

UPDATE COMING SOON.
All,
Unfortunately there has been some issues that we have been looking into and preparing to make changes to the web site.
As of today we would like to ask our readers for patience while we try to rid the site of spammers and spoofers. Please be very careful with any of our links. It would be best habit for the next month or two, to copy and paste any link into your search engine of choice and then go to the link through the search site. Unfortunately this is why we havent been posting photos within our pages.
Here is what we will be covering soon.
