Recommendation from a CAC Committee (Discussion/Action) Engineering, Maintenance and Safety Committee (EMSC)
Motion 070228.13: WHEREAS the Eureka portals have been useful to maintaining operations for the Metro system in the past few years during emergency conditions including flooding and streetcar derailments.
Therefore, the MTA CAC recommends that the Eureka portals be structurally repaired, restored and beautified at the surface entrances/exits so that they can continue to provide needed operational flexibility for the Metro system in emergencies and/or any other future uses.
The MTA CAC further recommends that the MTA develop an action plan for the Eureka portals rehabilitation as part of the multi-year capitol budget process. |
