This is really promising news, especially since this transportation package will be coming up to vote in the 2020 November election, so it should get a lot of support. The fact that Metro and Trimet are going to actually study a subway tunnel through downtown is a huge advancement of the rail system here and the ability to run more lines and even potentially run longer trains on some of those lines.
