They can be planted close together. Where you might run into trouble is if you plant Black raspberries next to Red raspberries. The reds tolerate a disease the blacks can't, which leads to problems growing the blacks. I think if they're 500' apart that would minimize the problem.

Got another question Can raspberries and blackberries be plant close together? If not what, is the distance that they must be planted apart? Also, why must they be planted apart, if they have to.

Thank You
