Sunrail may be back on track in Central Florida

| Railroad track |
Sunrail is the commuter rail system proposed for Central Florida. Initial plans call for a61mile run between Deland in Volusia County through Orlando to Osceola County. The first phase is planned to be about half of the total length, from Debary to Sand Lake Road in Orlando. Another future plan calls for extending the line east to Daytona Beach.
Florida Governor Rick Scott a few months back rejected $2.4Billion in federal stimulus money that would have moved the project forward but now the state and a consortium of local governments will use transportation funds to get the project back on track. Current plans call for the first phase to operational in 2014.
