Most people don't realize that the original John Chafee proposal was for a $20 million Amtrak station at Green. This morphed into a $300 million non-Amtrak station with $30 million coming right out of the highway fund as a rescue of the Intermodal even though the highway planning committee opposed that move. Now we can't even finish the repaving of I-95 something that was supposed to happen two years ago. And now the governor is studying merging RIAC RIDOT and RIPTA into some kind of super agency. RIDOT cannot borrow money to fund the state share of federal grants. But RIAC can. Would this combining of agencies get around that RIDOT problem?
