These grants can be eliminated or cut drastically.
Trump doesn’t like Oregon,Washington & especially Portland. ODOT gets about 24% of their budget from Uncle Sam. We need and deserve a FULL audit of ODOT, & Tri Met. It is time to get realistic about money. USCG can not legally let IBR clearance issue (about 62 feet) just slide. How much of our taxes were wasted on last Bridge plan, (CRC). I have read a lot more than $200 million.

The FAA and Coast Guard have not signed off on any of this. Until they do, money is being spent and the bridge is going nowhere.

This bridge project is nothing more than a scam to get the taxpaying suckers who drive automobiles to subsidize light rail.
