Tri-Rail Train Service Expected to Slow Through Rest of 2018 Due to Track Repairs

Two South Florida railroads are missing the deadlines for train safety systems. NBC 6’s Tony Pipitone reports.

If you use the Tri-Rail train system to get through Miami-Dade, Broward or Palm Beach County, listen up: you may need to prepare for delays over the next three months.

Starting Wednesday and running through December 26th, the 72-miles of train tracks will have maintenance work done on them at various points – which is expected to reduce speed and force trains to use a single track at several areas.

Tri-Rail, which runs along the west side of I-95 between the three counties, is expecting trains to run as much as 20 minutes behind schedule according to the South Florida Sun-Sentinel.

Passengers are being encouraged to download the Tri-Rail app, visit their website or call 1-800-874-7245 to monitor times and check for updates.
