All Aboard Florida hints at Jacksonville expansion

[thelakelander]

All Aboard Florida has paid $1.4 million to the Central Florida Expressway Authority to help secure the final easements it needs to make its run from Miami to Orlando. The commuter rail line has also indicated in its contract that an extension to Jacksonville is a real possibility.
When describing how All Aboard Florida will operate, the contract states in a number of places that "it is understood and agreed" that a Jacksonville leg is being considered.

Bring it on!

They still havent got their financing yet for Orlando, but its good to see Jax is on their mind. Drives the Tampa people nuts.

I love it when Tampa gets jealous of Jax!


An extension to Jax just makes sense and requires almost nothing to make it happen, other than a station.
