Oversight group to inspect Metro tracks next month

The local group that oversees Metro safety is slated to inspect the transit agency’s tracks next month, resolving a nearly seven-month dispute with Metro over access to the system it is supposed to monitor.

The Tri-State Oversight Committee has tentatively scheduled several days of inspections for December, Chairman Eric Madison told The Examiner on Monday. However, he said, there has been no decision on how much notice the committee needs to give the agency before inspecting the tracks in the future.
