Sedgwick County commissioners have agreed to support the City of Wichita in a grant application for a study of rail traffic that has caused delays along a major north side corridor. The Wichita City Council has approved a grant application to the U.S. Department of Transportation for a Reconnecting Communities grant program. The city is applying for $1 million to fund a study that will find solutions to the impact of rail traffic along 21st Street, from Waco to Grove. There are delays for traffic several times a day because of trains that have stopped to change crews or uncouple rail cars.
