UP starts $4.8 million Ore. siding project
Construction has started on Union Pacific Railroad’s $4.8 million project to extend a siding near the Portland/Gresham, Ore. city limits.
Crews last month started constructing more than 7,000 feet of track and connecting it to an existing passing track known as Hemlock. The length of the completed siding project will be almost 9,900 feet and is expected to be finished Feb. 1.
Union Pacific said that NE 185th Street in Gresham will be closed until Dec. 31 as work takes place.
