This project extends light rail transit (LRT) service from the Old Town Transit Center to the University City community serving major activity centers such as the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), University Towne Centre (UTC), Old Town, and downtown San Diego. The 11-mile extension to the existing San Diego Trolley system starts just north of the Old Town Transit Center and travels parallel to Interstate 5 (I-5) north to Gilman Drive. Three stations are proposed in this section at Tecolote Road, Clairemont Drive, and Balboa Avenue. The extension will run north along I-5 to UCSD and continue to its terminus at UTC in the University City area. There are five stations proposed in this segment at University Center Lane, UCSD West, UCSD East, Executive Drive, and the UTC Transit Center. |
