Re: Green Line to Medford to start in 2011
I'm sure they have a decent story about where the new alignment needs to leave the old (and it is probably longer than any of us are picturing) but still, that's the part that you do last as the final tie in. I agree, if this were a highway, it'd be closed for no more than 3 months.
I believe they are actually tearing down and replacing the elevated structure itself all the way from the Land Blvd/Gilmore Bridge approach intersection to the location of the existing station.
