How will the new rail affect pedestrian wheelchair users crossing the tracks? How will the space between the rails with this project compare to what exists today?
The surface elevation of the crossings will continue to match the elevation of the street. The space between the rails where sidewalks currently exist will be extremely similar to the existing surface, except it will be renewed as part of this project. Sidewalk users should notice an improved crossing surface.
