Rail line in Anaheim, California
Anaheim Rapid Connection (ARC) was a proposedstreetcar line inAnaheim, California. It would have been located in theAnaheim Resort andPlatinum Triangle, with stops at theDisneyland Resort, theAnaheim Convention Center, and theAnaheim Regional Transportation Intermodal Center (ARTIC), among others. It has been the subject of much political controversy,[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] which led to the project being cancelled by OCTA in 2018.[16] Councilmembers from the cities of Anaheim and Fullerton stated opposition to the streetcar mode citing concerns about traffic impacts, safety, capital costs, and recent declining transit ridership. These cities also shared concerns about how implementation of dedicated transit lanes would impact automobile traffic.[17]
