Construction is expected to begin in 2015, and completion slated for March 2017.[1] The entire projected is budgeted at $40 million, including parking, bus facilities, and the construction of an overpass to carry Peabody Road over the railroad tracks. When completed, the station will see several dozen Capitol Corridor trains operated by Amtrak California.[2] The initially proposed site was adjacent to Travis Air Force Base.
Ground was broken for construction on May 20, 2015.[3]
