Tri-County Metropolitan Transportation District of Oregon (TriMet) crews today will begin a six-week rail profile grinding project on 25 miles of track along the MAX light-rail route.
The grinding will be done overnight when trains are not running, according to a TriMet press release. Crews will begin in downtown Portland and work toward the Portland International Airport.
The project — which will wrap up May 18 near Gresham, Oregon — will result in a smoother ride and lower maintenance costs, TriMet officials said.
