$500K grant will fund study to improve infamous SE Portland rail crossing

Bonamici said she’s found herself trapped at a train crossing before and that in addition to the everyday frustration, the frequent jam-ups can create real challenges for people. 

“If someone is trying to get to doctor’s appointment or a meeting, it can be incredibly frustrating and challenging and, frankly, not safe for people to be trying to find a way to get around the train,” she said.
