This past Tuesday, Raleigh’s City Council held a work station where they, among other things, heard updates about NCDOT’s acquisition and upgrade of the S-line corridor.. Among other things (see this post for updates about the rest of the Raleigh-Richmond portion of the S-line), we got a first look at what a RUS expansion may look like.
The first thing you may notice is how the path to the northern platform looks so funky. I assume that has to do with terrain limitations plus how there’s as little amounts of track being closed as possible for construction, but we won’t know for sure until we see more detailed site plans and land survey results -and we probably won’t see that until the S-line project gets further in design.
