The California Transportation Commission has allocated $106 million for San Diego County rail projects, including $36 million for future phases of the ongoing efforts to stabilize the Del Mar bluffs.
Work is underway on the fourth phase of a six-part effort begun in 2003 to shore up the 1.7-mile stretch of eroding coastal cliffs. The current construction, budgeted at $5.8 million, includes repairing and replacing a concrete storm-water channel and other drainage structures and installing more concrete-and-steel support columns.
