June 2014
his June and July, the MSRC will once again be holding a series of six regional workshops to provide clean transportation stakeholders with the opportunity to provide ideas and feedback on the types of projects in which they would like to see the MSRC invest during the next round of funding.
For a third consecutive year, the MSRC partnered with Metrolink (the Southern California Regional Rail Authority) to bring NASCAR fans to the Auto Club Speedway in Fontana for the Auto Club 400 NASCAR race held annually in March. While Metrolink had previously offered chartered train service to the Speedway in the past, it was discontinued in 2009 for economic reasons. However, when the MSRC issued its Major Event Center Transportation Program solicitation in, the Speedway approached Metrolink to partner once again for a special train service to the NASCAR race with the help of MSRC’s Clean Transportation Funding.
While this Summer’s Hollywood Bowl lineup features a lot of hot acts, every Bowl performance also will feature more cool clean energy buses than ever before thanks to Clean Transportation Funding from the MSRC’s Major Event Center Transportation Program.
