Editor's Note: TriMet is making some significant improvements to their MAX Blue Line. Below is a press release prepared by Tyler Graf of TriMet outlining major parts of the project. DCL
The curved rail running along I-84 near the Northeast 33rd Avenue overpass has long been an important piece of TriMet’s MAX system. It’s a stretch that not only carries a lot of trains, it does so as they pick up and maintain speed. From Saturday, May 15, through Sunday, May 23, TriMet will replace rail and other components of our trackway along this stretch as part of the final phase of the MAX Blue Line Improvements project.
