VTrans participates in rail 'Knowledge Corridor' groundbreaking
By admin January 1, 2021 iyikjnri
Vermont Transportation Secretary Brian Searles today joined officials from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, including Lt. Gov. Timothy P. Murray; Congressman John Olver; and MassDOT Secretary Richard A. Davey; and US Federal Railroad Administrator Joseph Szabo in Greenfield, MA, for the groundbreaking ceremony to kick-off reconstruction of the Pan Am Southern's rail line between East Northfield and Springfield, Massachusetts. The 'Knowledge Corridor' project, so-called because of the number of colleges and universities in proximity to the rail line, will serve as the operating track for the Massachusetts segment of Amtrak's Vermonter passenger train when construction is completed in 2013. 'The State of Vermont has been an ardent supporter of this initiative as it's moved from early vision, to broader study and planning phases, to our strong endorsement of Massachusetts' application for the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) funding needed to realize this important transportation milestone. Returning our passenger service to this line has been a goal since we first began the state-supported Vermonter service in April 1995,' said Secretary Searles. 'The reductions in travel time and delays, and the increased reliability of the service upon completion of the project, will provide a stronger link between communities in Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and the New York metropolitan region served by Amtrak's Northeast Corridor trains,' he added. 'We also view it as a key component of our effort to restore passenger rail service over the US-Canada border into Montreal, Quebec.' Additionally, Secretary Searles noted, 'The anticipated growth in ridership and corresponding revenues this realignment is expected to yield will aid Vermont in containing the future costs of providing this critical travel option for both residents and visitors to our state and the New England-New York region.' On June 30, 2011, MassDOT signed the agreements with the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) that will enable Amtrak's Vermonter train to again travel the historic Massachusetts 'Knowledge Corridor' route between Springfield, MA and East Northfield, MA. The Project will utilize a $73 million Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) grant from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) to undertake rail improvements in the Pioneer Valley in Western Massachusetts. The Pan Am Southern is a joint venture between Pan Am Railways and Norfolk Southern. Revitalization of the Knowledge Corridor route will restore passenger trains traveling between St. Albans, VT, and Washington, DC to their original route. The construction is expected to begin in late 2011 and be completed in late 2013. VTrans. 10.21.2011 read more
Wolf Administration Gives Update on Winter Snow Storm
By admin October 17, 2020 iyikjnri
SHARE Email Facebook Twitter Wolf Administration Gives Update on Winter Snow Storm Blizzard 2016, Press Release, Weather Safety Harrisburg, PA – The Wolf Administration provided the following update on the winter storm across Pennsylvania and the situation on I-76 in the Somerset area:A historic snowstorm unfolded from Friday through Saturday evening across much of the southern half of the commonwealth. Snowfall ended Saturday evening after leaving behind a swath of 2-3 feet of snow along the Pennsylvania turnpike corridor. Despite the historic and daunting conditions of the storm, there were no fatalities or major injuries as a result of the backlog due to the response of local and state responders who worked tirelessly to check on vehicles and keep drivers safe.PennLive: Jaw-dropping snow measurements tallied in Harrisburg, across the state"Winter Storm Jonas… dumped 30.2 inches of snow on the Harrisburg area from 4 p.m. Friday through late Saturday night… Harrisburg's prior measurable snowfall record was set nearly 33 years ago, when the capital area was buried by 25 inches of snow in 1983." [PennLive, 1/23/16]Inquirer: Storm Jonas was one for the record books"A historic winter storm, packing hurricane-force gusts, inciting record tides at the Shore, creating blizzard-like conditions and impacting 20 percent of the nation's population, heaped up to 28 inches of snow – and a colossal cleanup operation – upon the Philadelphia region… Jan. 23, 2016, will be remembered as one of the wildest days in the region's weather history. Lehigh Valley Airport seemed to top the region with 31.9 inches as of 2 a.m." [Inquirer, 1/23/16]Morning Call: Storm smashes Lehigh Valley snowfall record"More than a doozy, the storm proved historic, dumping 31.7 inches of snow and smashing the area's previous record. Reminiscent of the epic January 1996 blizzard, which produced the previous record of 25.6 inches of snow in the Lehigh Valley, this storm generated blizzard conditions for a couple hours Saturday, according to National Weather Service meteorologist Lance Franck in Mount Holly, N.J." [Morning Call,1/23/16]Along I-76, there was a backlog of vehicles in an area that was among the hardest hit in the state with more than 35 inches of snow falling over the course of the storm.The backlog began when westbound tractor trailers became unable to climb through the mountains toward the Allegheny tunnels, jack-knifed and traffic backed up behind them. As progress was made to clear the initial stranded trucks, other trucks also became unable to go up the hill. This caused a backlog for all vehicles. Due to the backlog and the increasingly poor conditions, emergency crews were unable to get heavy–duty tow trucks to the scene to clear the disabled trucks. The backlog also prevented Turnpike road crews from being able to clear the snow for motorists.Plan X was instituted by PSP and the Turnpike overnight to start turning people around, and having cars exit turnpike in opposite direction. Plan X is the method by which the Turnpike Commission, in emergency situations such as multiple vehicle accidents, closes certain sections of the Turnpike and reroutes traffic around the affected sections. In order to turn vehicles around, the roadway needed to be cleared by hand and using vehicles smaller than large plows. At this time, the snow was falling at a significant rate.When the backlog was reported, PEMA contacted Somerset/Bedford emergency management to add extra resources for driver checks by first responders on ATVs. There were five fire departments, including Shanksville, Berlin, Shawnee Valley, New Baltimore, and Somerset, and Pennsylvania State Police personnel performing driver checks. Every car was checked multiple times. The Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission refueled cars that were low on fuel so they could keep heat running in their cars. The National Guard was deployed with shovels, MREs, water and chains to assist with driver checks and stuck cars. There was a warming shelter set up at the Bedford exit, with additional EMS on standby there.On Friday night and early Saturday morning, there were more than 135 first responders from state, county, and local governments on the scene. By Saturday, the number of first responders grew to 250 including 87 guard troops supported by 28 humvees, 8 cargo trucks, and 2 large wreckers.PEMA, in coordination with state agencies and local authorities, implemented a plan to remove stranded motorists from the Pennsylvania Turnpike in Bedford and Somerset counties. This plan included buses and specialized vehicles from private vendors, the Pennsylvania National Guard and the Department of Corrections. In addition, incident management teams from PEMA, DCNR, Region 13, and Keystone were on scene to support the established incident command post. A PEMA-IMT representative along with 13 total IMT staff have been at the staging scene.The queue between mile-markers 126-128 westbound steadily decreased overnight and, at last report, all vehicles were cleared. Salt/plow trucks are in the area and are clearing and treating the roadway. Abandoned vehicles were moved to the KEGG. PEMA with local partners are working out logistics for getting motorists reunited with their vehicles.Additionally, a number of freed passengers – with the assistance of the National Guard – began to move to the Bedford shelters at the local high school that was established by PEMA. Although shelters were identified at both the middle school and high school only one shelter needed to be established at Bedford High School. Bedford High School had a midnight shelter count of 216 residents. 1,200 meals were delivered by the National Guard consisting of box lunches made by the Salvation Army. The school cafeteria was also opened and served food. Cots were delivered.Some individuals, mostly commercial truck drivers, elected to remain with their vehicles. Well-being checks of motorists who chose to remain with their vehicles were performed overnight. Meals were also offered to those who stayed with their vehicles.The shelter manager advises that buses for shelter residents are waiting to go. The manager plans to facilitate their departure and will give each shelter resident a boxed lunch to take with them for the ride. Turnpike is working with a private contractor to reunite people at shelters with their vehicles.Like Governor Tom Wolf on Facebook: Facebook.com/GovernorWolf January 24, 2016 read more

TTFA lawyers warn bank regarding control of association accounts
CMC – AS the Trinidad and Tobago Football Association (TTFA) continues its fight against FIFA taking over administration of the organization, its ousted president William Wallace has warned First Citizens Bank against changing the signatories on the association's accounts there.Wallace, through lawyers representing the TTFA in its challenge to FIFA appointing a normalization committee to replace the association's Board, has reportedly written to the bank warning that legal action would be taken if it was discovered that signatories or any other information was changed without the required authorization."Since the elections held in November 2019, following which Mr William Wallace was duly elected president of the TTFA and subsequent thereto added as a signatory to the accounts, there has been no further change," the lawyers wrote in an April 17 letter, according to Sports Max."Any attempts to change the signatories on the account which may have already been made in March or April 2020 or attempts which may be made hereafter without the express approval of Mr William Wallace and/or the duly elected executives is unauthorized."Should it come to light that the bank has provided any confidential information to, or acted to make any changes in respect to the TTFA accounts…my clients shall without delay approach the High Court or urgent assistance in preventing or stopping any breach or unlawful interference," it added.A normalization headed by a local businessman was appointed by FIFA to take charge of TTFA's operations late last month, after an assessment by football's world governing body and continental body CONCACAF found that "extremely low overall financial management methods, combined with a massive debt" had left the local body "facing a very real risk of insolvency and illiquidity".The committee, which will have up to two years to carry out its work, has to create a debt repayment plan for the embattled TTFA, review the local governing body's statutes and ensure their adherence to FIFA regulations, and oversee new elections.But the TTFA is challenging FIFA's takeover at the Court of Arbitration for Sports in Switzerland.In the correspondence to First Citizens Bank, the TTFA's lawyers made it clear that as far as they were concerned, FIFA had no standing to touch the association's bank accounts."My client would like to believe that in the modern banking context which is set against a backdrop of robust due diligence, no mere letter from a body with no legal standing in Trinidad and Tobago, could usurp the due authority of the TTFA Board of Directors and/or induce the bank to breach its contract with the TTFA," they wrote.Last week, FIFA insisted that its normalization committee remains the sole authority for football governance here, after Wallace sent a letter to the Trinidad government stating that he and his executive remained the constitutionally elected leaders of the TTFA. read more
Congo, Uganda Crash out of Russia 2018 Qualification Campaign
Congo ending their 2018 Fifa World Cup qualifying campaign without a win in group E after playing to a 1-1 draw against Uganda at the New Kintele Stadium in Brazzaville on Sunday.The home side got off to the perfect start with Marvin Baudry opening the scoring for Congo in the 10th minute, 1-0.Uganda, though, quickly hit back with Milton Karisa levelling matters a minute later, 1-1.Congo controlled the rest of the half, but struggled to break down the Ugandan defence as the two nations headed into the halftime break all-square.The second half saw Uganda gaining the ascendancy early on, but their finishing in front of goal was poor, with their attackers constantly firing off target. Congo struggled to get their foot on the ball in the second 45 and were mere spectators in front of their home crowd.Nonetheless, Congo threw players forward in the final 10 minutes of the match as they went in search of a winner which they were unable to find as the game ended 1-1.The result leaves Congo without a win in group E as they hold up the bottom of the standings with only two points from six matches.The draw for Uganda leaves them in second place in the group with nine points.Egypt are the team to qualify from group E after topping the standings irrespective of the lastShare this:FacebookRedditTwitterPrintPinterestEmailWhatsAppSkypeLinkedInTumblrPocketTelegram read more
