Project Description:

Ancillary construction includes the relocation of a single-lane access roadway for movement of maintenance and railroad crews along the tracks. Minor onsite, private utility relocations, as a result of the proposed track work, will be included in the project. Impervious area removal and landscaping will be used to meet all storm water management requirements. The utility services requiring relocation include the water cannons, for dust suppression, and site lighting.
