Yesterday, U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood announced a $3.6 million grant for the Missouri Department of Transportation (MODOT) to build a third main track on the St. Louis Grand Avenue-to-Gratiot Street Rail Corridor, USDOT officials said in a prepared statement.
The project will allow the existing track near the Gateway Intermodal Station to be used primarily for the Amtrak train access to the station. The corridor is one of the busiest corridors in the St. Louis area, officials said.
The improvements are designed to reduce Amtrak train delays and improve the rail corridor’s on-time performance in downtown St. Louis, they said.
