Reply to comment by todareistobmore in Gov. Moore announces his transportation secretary by GovernorOfReddit

From what I’ve been told, there is intent to get going right away on the red line. There are some issues to deal with as far as original ROWs are concerned (we’ve built on them) so there will need to be slight route changes. I’m also concerned that the greenway trail and the red line are both counting on using the same defunct but still owned by Norfolk Southern ROW along Haven st in the SE. I’m still trying to get clarification on this though.

Is it safe to assume that intent is to maintain light rail technology for the Red Line (vs. BRT or heavy rail)?

The proposed rail is a different track than the light rail IIRC. It’s the standard DC uses iirc.
