At the Spring Training of 2008 Mark was throwing around numbers for the crossing itself of around $800,000 but I have no idea how much it actually cost, but the project was paid for with a grant and was under the direction and control of N.D.O.T. However many people have complained about the work, the crossing itself is very smooth but when heading south (toward Ely) on 93 it takes a large dip to the right and pulls cars off to the right, and that is what people are complaining about. What needs to be done is the crossing taken back out and have the track below the highway and on the north side raised to meet the level of the highway. So it can really be considered a waste of state money, had the track been raised it would have been a major plus.
