That followed a decision in March by the Foothill Gold Line Construction Authority board to reject a construction bid of $994 million from Omaha, Nebraska-based Kiewit Corp., as that bid came in nearly 50% above the $645 million construction budget.
That combination of soaring construction costs and San Bernardino County pulling much of its funding means that for now, the Foothill A Line Extension will be ending in Claremont.
From there, the A line traverses through downtown Los Angeles, Pasadena, Azusa, Glendora and the most recent segment ending in Pomona.
Assuming the Claremont extension is completed, it will end at a station less than a mile from the San Bernardino County line.
According to the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority, which is operating the A line between Long Beach and Pomona, that makes for the longest light rail line in the world.
