PROJECT NAME/NUMBER: ERC Rail Removal Phase 1 / LUA16-000848, TU
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The applicant is proposing removal of the rail infrastructure to improve
access, efficiency, and safety for maintenance and operations until the Eastside Rail Corridor can be developed into a
regional trail. The maintenance and repair project includes rails and timber ties removal, minor grading to even out the
rail bed, minor timber trestle repair at SE 32nd Street, and capping the rail bed with 4-inches of ADA crushed gravel
material to enhance maintenance access and user safety. All work will be done within the existing footprint of the rail
bed. No trees are proposed to be removed and critical areas will not be impacted. The project will also include
appropriate safety signage at crossings, placement of removable bollards and boulders at crossings, installation of chain
link fencing for fall protection in the vicinity of steep slopes, and installation of low split rail fencing along sensitive areas
(wetlands) to prevent encroachment into critical areas. A Critical Areas Exemption and Grading License will be issued as
part of this permit process.
