Failed switches can result in excessive downtime and maintenance costs, further complicated by heavy rail volumes within the northwest seaport alliance(seattle tacoma) freight gateway. Once completed, the replaced switches will enable the yardto reduce and or eliminate the need for monthly repairs and ensure yard capacity remainsclose to 100 at all times. In addition, the project will help minimize rail dwell times and thecost of shipping by rail. The rail switch upgrade will support the long-term competitiveness ofthe port of tacoma and the northwest seaport alliance, and thus the long-term economiccompetitiveness of our region.
