Washington/Bethesda county executive's "tunnel-saving" plan
Bethesda county Executive Marc Elrich’s request to have the light-rail Purple Line single-tracked using the existing Bethesda tunnel (instead of building a second parallel tunnel) is drawing criticism.
Hi Matt, just to add the background to your post;
"Montgomery County Executive Marc Elrich (D) had asked the Maryland Transit Administration to explore whether the Purple Line could be single-tracked inside the Bethesda station to allow enough room for the county to rebuild the Capital Crescent Trail there."
