Description
Description | The Yakima Valley Trolleys nonprofit operates the city-owned interurban electric railroad. The city council is evaluating a five-year operating agreement starting January 1, 2026, amid budget constraints. A major road construction project along the trolley route requires rebuilding the street connecting the trolley barn with the rest of the line to Selah, with an estimated cost of approximately $7 million to reinstall rails and catenary. The city council delayed the operating agreement decision until after deciding on the road project due to financial concerns. |
