Judith of Poland, was a Polish princess member of the House of Piast and by marriage Margravine of Brandenburg. She was the daughter of Bolesław III Wrymouth, Duke of Poland, by his second wife Salomea, daughter of Henry, Count of Berg, she was named after either her paternal grandmother, Judith of Bohemia or her older half-sister, Princess consort of Murom. Judith was one of the youngest children of her parents. According to Polish medieval chronicles, she was sent to Hungary as a bride of the son of King Béla II. According to the Annales Cracovienses Compilati, this event took place in 1136; the marriage never took place: by 1146, the engagement was broken with the consent of both parties and Judith returned to Poland. The reason for this may have been the wedding of Mieszko with the Hungarian princess Elisabeth, which sufficiently secured the Polish-Hungarian alliance. In Kruszwica on 6 January 1148 Judith married Otto, eldest son of Albert the Bear, the first Margrave of Brandenburg; this union was contracted in connection with the Ascanian efforts to support the Junior Dukes in opposition to King Conrad III of Germany, who supported the deposed High Duke Władysław II as legal ruler of Poland.

During her marriage, she bore her husband two sons, Otto in 1149, Henry in 1150. Nothing is known about the political role. After his father's death in 1170, Otto became the second Margrave of Brandenburg and Judith the Margravine consort. Like her birth date, Judith's date of death remains unknown. Only the day, 8 July, is known thanks to the Regesta Historia Brandenburgensis, which records the death in "VIII Id Jul" of "Juditha marchionissa gemma Polonorum". By contrast, the year of death can be determined only through indirect sources. In documents from 1170 Judith is named as a living person, but according to chronicles from 1177 her husband Otto I was married to his second wife, Ada of Holland. On this basis, it is assumed that Judith died between 1171 and 1175, she was buried in the Brandenburg Cathedral. Judith's oldest son, Otto II, inherited the Margraviate of Brandenburg after the death of his father in 1184, he never had children.

Sonoma–Marin Area Rail Transit is a passenger rail service and bicycle-pedestrian pathway project in Sonoma and Marin counties of the U. S. state of California. When completed, the entire system will serve a 70-mile corridor between Cloverdale in northern Sonoma County and Larkspur Landing in Marin County; the first phase of the system, a 43-mile segment between Northern Santa Rosa and Downtown San Rafael, opened to public preview and excursion services on June 29, 2017. Regular service began on August 25, 2017, after Federal Railroad Administration gave the final approval for the Positive Train Control system; the southern two miles of the line was completed to Larkspur with service commencing on December 14, 2019. The last passenger rail service along the Northwestern Pacific Railroad south of Willits was discontinued in 1958 as automobile travel along US 101 increased in popularity; the SMART District was established by state legislation in 2002. Disused station buildings were repaired in anticipation of reestablished rail service in Healdsburg and Windsor, Cloverdale's depot was constructed in 1998.

Mitigation of environmental impacts was studied and summarized in a report issued in June 2006. The recommended remedies, which were certified without challenge, included silencing of some train horns in quiet zones and replacement of certain wetland ditches. On October 10, 2013, SMART announced that it had obtained more than 56 acres of an area in Novato known as the “Mira Monte Marina.” The purpose of this purchase is to restore the area and preserve tidal wetlands and habitat, all a part of SMART’s environmental mitigation program. According to SMART General Manager Farhad Mansourian, “This will not only address the 2.2 acres of project impacts that were determined through the environmental review process for the next stage of construction, but ensures a local source for potential future mitigation needs for the rail and pathway project.” The project is funded by federal, state and local allocations, dedicated sales tax revenues, fares. The capital cost of track rehabilitation for the full 70-mile line, railcars, etc. was estimated to be about $450 million in 2008.

By 2019, development of the line from Airport Boulevard in Santa Rosa to the San Rafael Transit Center totaled $448 million and the estimated cost to complete the legislated system had increased to $944 million. In November 2006, Measure R, a proposal for funding though an increase in sales taxes, received a combined 65.3% "yes" vote in the two-county District, with 70.1% in favor in Sonoma County and 57.5% in favor in Marin County. Because it lacked the 2/3 supermajority needed for passage, that measure failed. Measure Q, similar to Measure R, was approved on November 4, 2008, it received a combined vote of 69.5% in the two counties. It provides funding for the project through a quarter-cent sales tax in both counties set to expire in 2029; this funding was thought sufficient to bring the line to completion by 2014. However, the economic downturn reduced the tax base, resulting in a plan to build the project in phases; the tax was expected to generate $890 million over its lifetime. In January 2018, SMART received Road Repair and Accountability Act funds to increase weekday and Saturday frequencies.

The SMART Board authorized the sale of bonds in late 2011. In May 2012, SMART issued nearly $200 million in bonds to fund construction; the bonds will be paid off with the Measure Q quarter-cent sales tax revenue. In January 2012, SMART completed final negotiations to start rebuilding the 43-mile Initial Operating Segment between Airport Blvd Santa Rosa and the Civic Center Station in San Rafael at a cost less than budgeted; the segment was completed jointly by Herzog Contracting Corp.. In 2012, SMART announced that it was adding two stations to the Initial Operation Segment: in north Santa Rosa, near Coddingtown, in Novato at Atherton Avenue; the Puerto Suello Hill Tunnel in San Rafael was rehabilitated for service and the 111-year old fixed span Haystack Bridge was replaced with a newer movable bascule bridge. Concrete ties were installed along the line to facilitate running up to 80 miles per hour and several spur lines were removed to adhere to federal safety standards. Businesses may connect a switch and spur to the line by purchasing the equipment for about $300,000.

The first phase of construction does not include the complete parallel bicycle path. Scheduled passenger service delayed from an estimated 2014, had long been expected for late 2016; this resulted from lack of tax revenues due to the economic downturn, which led to the project opening in phases. As late 2016 approached, the agency further delayed opening the IOS between Northern Santa Rosa and Downtown San Rafael until "late spring 2017." A crankshaft failure on a diesel engine used in the near-identical Nippon Sharyo diesel multiple unit trains operating in Toronto necessitated all of SMART's cars to be recalled for crank replacements, according to SMART management. The agency additionally had been experiencing problems with warning systems at some grade crossings, had not completed its approval process with the Federal Railroad Administration; the 2017 California floods caused damage to the Puerto Suello Hill Tunnel, further delaying testing of the line. Preview service and excursion trips timed with the Marin County Fair beg
