NY Getting Money for Rail Projects
New York State will be receiving $151 million in federal stimulus money for railroad projects, and some of it is going to Buffalo.
U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand says. “Building high-speed rail here will connect more commuters and businesses, create jobs immediately and help rebuild our economy for the long term. We’ve worked hard for a long time to bring high-speed rail to New York. This round of funding is just the first step in our efforts to secure what New York needs to achieve true high-speed rail connectivity. I will keep fighting to make sure New York gets more high speed rail funding in future rounds.”
Part of the money will go toward rehabilitation of the Buffalo-Depew station facilities to a state of good repair and accessibility upgrades to meet Americans with Disabilities Act standards.
