State funds to bridge the gap for Marysville rail crossings
Marysville drivers know the drill.
Getting to and from I-5 runs the risk of being stuck behind a closed railroad crossing that runs north and south, just east of the freeway.
But there aren’t many convenient alternatives. All of the 16 rail line and road intersections are at-grade crossings in the city, plus seven more at private roads.

Marysville is set to get $5.5 million to put toward two railroad overcrossing projects in the Legislature’s $17 billion Move Ahead Washington transportation package.
