NCTD receives $53.9M for rail improvements

North County Transit District will receive $53.9 million in federal funding for improvements to the San Dieguito River Railway Bridge. The bridge will be replaced, moving from a single track to a double track and raising the height of the tracks. Then, an independent investigation released by Metropolitan Transit System found former San Diego County Supervisor Nathan Fletcher had no involvement with the firing of a former MTS employee who has accused him of sexual harassment and assault. Finally, Black Comix Day is an annual event that puts the spotlight on Black creators in the comic book industry. It’s happening Feb. 3-4 at the WorldBeat Cultural Center.
