Overview of BNSF Railway's proposed Southern California International Gateway (SCIG). This near-dock rail facility, located a few miles from the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, will allow cargo to be transferred onto rail closer to the ports, increasing use of the Alameda Corridor and improving local traffic and air quality. We'd like your support! To learn more or send a support letter to local leaders, visit http://www.communitiesmatter.com.

  • @JetMechMA Hi, I don't see how they are outsourcing. If you are talking about international shipping in general, I see what you think is a valid point, but would you rther we close our bordrs and pretend international trade does not exist? Who would we then sell OUR surplus to? JetMechMA, respectfully you are worng on this one. Trade creates hundreds of thousands of jobs throughout the country. Withut it, we'd probably have 25% or more (just a guess) unemployment..

  • Outstanding! Excellent explanation on why it is needed, and why it is suited so well to where it is planned. How come none of the opponents mention you offered to build sound walls on teh East side of the freeway?

  • Every job at one of these "outsourcing" ports represents a loss of several jobs inland. Folks, this is nothing to cheer about. What's wrong with you all? It's simple math. These ports represent OUTSOURCED jobs. Jobs that used to keep our economy going. Now look at America, millions of Americans are either out of work or under-employed...which has left the economy in a smoldering ruins. America is turning into a third world nation made up of the haves and have-nots. Wake up!

  • how do i get an application?
