A joint effort by California State Senator Anthony Canella (R-Ceres), California State Assemblyman Adam Gray (D-Merced), and California State Senator Cathleen Galgiani (D-Stockton), will see the Altamont Corridor Express (ACE) receiving $400 million for service expansion as a key component of the Transportation Funding Measure (SB 1) which was approved recently by the Legislature. “The state has continuously underinvested in the San Joaquin Valley and in rural California,” said Senator Cannella. “ACE service to Modesto, Ceres, Turlock, and Merced will bring great economic benefit to our region providing a safe, reliable, affordable, and comfortable alternative to driving to the Bay Area.
