Rail Line Upgrade Through Jackson County

Last updated on Thursday, June 5, 2014

(JACKSON CO.) - A federal transportation board plans to issue a supplemental environmental assessment late this summer on a proposed $90 million upgrade of a rail line through Jackson County.

The action by the Surface Transportation Board could further delay the CSX Transportation Inc. project, which was first expected to receive approval this past November.

The board originally planned to issue a decision on the application for the joint use of the line but delayed its decision for an additional review based on issues raised during a public comment period.
