A new study released today says the rail transit program could bring in thousands of jobs.
Commissioned by the non-profit group Faith Action for Community Equity or "FACE."
The study shows that over 120,000 jobs may be created from the rail project in the next ten years.
"Those jobs are tied to the construction of the route, the development of the buildings and also to the businesses that are there," said FACE organizer Jun Yang.
FACE paid just $200 for the study, which was part of a larger study done of 24 metropolitan areas.
