At their weekly public meeting, Wednesday, the County Commissioners are expected to approve a grant application with the the U.S. Department of Transportation towards the renovations to the Lancaster City Amtrak Station.
Additional state funding in the amount of $2 million will match roughly 17% of the total funding amount, which is $12 million. Federal grants will provide $9,600,000. Lancaster County taxpayers will chip in $400,000.
Assistant Transportation Planner Chris Neumann said Tuesday that a construction groundbreaking will likely not occur until December.
