X35A | Rail-Highway Grade Crossing Program, State (Various)
This program will provide state funding for the elimination of hazards at rail-highway grade crossings by the closure of crossings or the upgrade/improvement of protective warning devices for roads throughout the state. This funding will allow flexibility in allocating monies for emergency repairs as well as to the areas in need regardless of their geographic location (MPO). This program will also allow grade crossing closures without drawing down the federal funds used for grade crossing improvements. Funding will also be provided for the design of traffic detours required for the crossing surface reconstruction projects.
This program will also provide funding for emergency repairs to the riding surface of highway-rail grade crossings identified during inspections or from complaints received. These repairs will be accomplished by an NJDOT contractor as priority situations are identified. These repairs will be limited to surface repairs that do not require railroad infrastructure work, or reconstruction of the crossing. This program will also include the installation of roadway-related items (signs, pavement markings) that have been identified as missing or needing replacement or are required (outstanding work from municipalities and counties) to close out federally funded grade crossing projects from previous years.
