AAF gets crossings approved
« on: May 10, 2016, 07:49:03 AM »
One of the issues the Treasure Coast leaders have been using as a wedge is the concept of crossing upgrades to improve safety. Up to now, according to local press, AAF couldnt do enough to secure the crossings.

AAF took their crossing plans to the Federal Railroad Administration, who has subsequently approved them. Now the TC leaders can quit stalling.

I still can't wait to hear these counties to beg for their stops.

I don't know about Indian River , but Brevard never fought AAF.  At least the county government didn't.  They probably know a little more about tourism than IRC and were smarter than that.  Also, Brevard isn't the treasure coast.
