If a tunnel would be built there, would the old tracks & ROW be sold off? I don't see any stations or goods yards there, so I assume it would. That should net some money, but nowhere near enough to pay for the tunnel, of course.
I see there's a UCSD campus and a VA hospital right by where a tunnel would go - a good place for a station on a commuter line. A bit close to Sorrento Valley station, but putting the station in a tunnel would make a better location possible. Move the station?
Who am I kidding, that'd cost way to much up-front and I'm sure nimbys would stop the construction of more housing in the area that'd make the whole thing a net gain for the economy of the area..
