In Social Issues > Transportation, the end of the last paragraph incorrectly states that the Gateway Project is still unfunded, but it is in fact funded and has began construction. In the last sentence, change "...and Amtrak's Gateway Project to bore new tunnels is currently unfunded" to "...and one year later in 2011, Amtrak's Gateway Project was unveiled, which began construction in 2023.

Not done: I don't think this necessarily rises to the level of notability, particularly on the basis of a single press release. PianoDan (talk) 17:09, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
