Goshen College Underpass Complete

Posted:

A long awaited project at Goshen College is finished.  The Underpass at the train tracks was unveiled Friday.

Construction began this past April after a five year wait.  The underpass allows people walking or biking to safely cross campus when a train is passing through.  There's a "runnel" for bikes to use and a lift for wheelchairs.

"No more excuses for being late. You start multiplying the number of people waiting for the train times the number of minutes.  It's a significant productivity improvement for us," says Project Coordinator Glenn Gilbert 

A federal grant to the city of Goshen covered the 1-point-8-million dollar project.
