According to Transbay, the Downtown Rail Extension will help remove thousands of commuters from the road, resulting in $360 million in travel time savings, more than $120 million in avoided vehicle operation and maintenance costs, and more than $20 million in benefits from improved safety. Construction of the Transit Center and buildout of the surrounding neighborhood are estimated to generate more than $87 billion in gross regional product and $52 billion in personal income through 2030.
