The tunnel technique is available, there are train tunnels through the alps and there is an over 30 miles tunnel beneath the English channel between France and England. I don’t believe that more tunnels are the problem of the High Speed Train project and I mean that in terms of costs.
The surface route claims to be parallel to the Freeway 14, but it is not. It cuts through unspoiled wilderness and would destroy whole towns. The way it is planned, a town like Acton would be sliced in several parts, including schools. I think the tunnel option is the better option.
