Rep. Ley: IBR is 'light rail project in search of a bridge'
Published 2 weeks, 6 days ago
Description
Rep. John Ley exposes how the Interstate Bridge Replacement Program allocates 54% of bridge surface to transit while costs skyrocket to $14.4 billion. He argues Portland's TriMet needs a federal bailout to cover their $300 million budget gap, pointing to Cincinnati's 10-lane bridge project that secured $1.6 billion in federal funding without any transit component. https://www.clarkcountytoday.com/news/video-rep-john-ley-i-5-bridge-replacement-project-is-a-light-rail-project-in-search-of-a-bridge/ #IBR #LightRail #Transportation #ClarkCounty #WashingtonState
