This provides for the initial installment of funds that are required for a significantly larger investment to complete work. Additional phased funding will be required to complete the entire segment of Track.

Scope includes replacement of ties, fasteners, timber guards, contact rail chairs, footwalks, handrails, track planking, selective running and contact rail, including at special trackwork and the middle track locations. The scope also includes improved curve geometry, running rail grinding, and incidental signal/traction power work. Lake Street
