I've always thought all <br />along, you know, the Brightline trains aren't going to be <br />at a crossing very long unless there's an accident or <br />something. They're going fast and that gate will come <br />down and the thing is going to zip by, the gate will come <br />up. Our biggest problem currently is when a freight train <br />is off schedule because we only have a very short piece of <br />dual track, so if they're off schedule the train has to <br />stop and that's when they're blocking three to four <br />crossings for 10, 15, 20 minutes that's when we have a <br />problem. If everything is dual track, I don't see that <br />being a problem going forward. I did ask Jason: I think <br />we should have Chief Stone talk to his counterpart down in <br />Palm Beach and Broward County because they're dealing <br />with, you know, this already -- <br />COMMISSIONER ADAMS: Right. <br />CHAIRMAN O'BRYAN: -- and ask them, Okay, are <br />your ambulances having trouble getting across the tracks, <br />what's your experience. But I don't think it's going be a <br />big problem and I would rather... I don't think a flyover, <br />VERO BEACH COURT REPORTERS <br />772-231-2231 <br />M <br />
