Nearly a decade after a devastating crash killed six people, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D) has announced a $3 million investment to improve rail crossings in Port Jervis and Chappaqua.
This funding aims to address the notorious safety concerns surrounding Hudson Valley's Metro-North crossings, which have been the site of hundreds of car accidents.
The tragic incident in Valhalla 9 years ago, where a train collided with a car on the tracks, resulting in the loss of six lives, highlighted the urgent need for safety upgrades.
