Trinity Railway Express Boosts Service with $43.5M Double-Track Project
The Trinity Railway Express is set to become faster and more reliable with a $43.5 million double-track project, aiming to let trains pass each other without stopping. The project, a joint effort between Fort Worths Trinity Metro and Dallas Area Rapid Transit, has received approval for key contracts in Tarrant County. Ridership has surged since the COVID drop-off, with over 548,000 passengers this fiscal year. The double tracks will boost service frequency and reliability, helping more people ditch the drive. The biggest contract goes to Reyes TX Incorporated for $25.1 million, covering new track and a bridge. The project adds nearly five miles of double track in Tarrant County, with eight more miles planned.
