Planned Weekend Rail Closure

COASTER Weekend Rail Closure 
January 8th - 9th 
All coastal rail line service will be suspended between the Oceanside Transit Center and Santa Fe Depot in San Diego this weekend, January 8-9, for routine maintenance and rail infrastructure work.

Weekend closures like these, referred to as Absolute Work Windows (AWWs), occur periodically during the year on a pre-determined schedule. AWWs provide construction crews the opportunity to work safely and unimpeded on and along the rail line to perform improvements and maintenance work.

Regular service will resume on Monday, January 10. As a result of the weekend rail construction and resulting speed restrictions, COASTER passengers may experience delays of up to 10-15 minutes on Monday.

For more information on this weekend's rail closure, please visit gonctd.com.
