Code: Select all
Turns out I was right about the association between the two projects. South Coast Rail is part of MBTA's plans to expand Old Colony service, and the track through Fall River ran right under the viaduct, in fact, it was rail, bottom deck, and top deck for about 1/2 mile(12. What is the relationship of this project to the proposed South Coast Rail Project?
MassDOT Highway Division is coordinating with MassDOT's South Coast Rail Project team and the railroad’s freight operator, Mass Coastal Railroad. The interchange project will enhance freight and passenger rail service in the project area in several ways. The proposed interchange project will raise the Anawan Street Bridge over the railroad, which would benefit South Coast Rail trains and other freight service and will allow access to a proposed platform near the Gates of the City monument.)
