March 2025 Update

It's the Month of Green! St. Patrick's Day, Trees Blooming, Flowers Springing up (let's ignore all the green weeds, green pollen, green windy/stormy skies).

The Mingo Ruddell Team has been working behind the scenes on preliminary designs including Ruddell, Mingo, new Ruddell/Mingo Railroad crossing and the Mingo Corridor Quiet Zone. We had an excellent field walk thru with the Team and the reps for Union Pacific Railroad in January. The "Diagnostic Field Assessment" for the Quiet Zone has been completed and ready for submittal. Meanwhile, the 30% Design Plans for all work is expected by end of April/Early May and the Project Team is schedule to start looking at ways to build faster, cheaper, sooner.
