CROSSING SAFETY GAINS SUPPORT

A grade crossing information system has been announced. The project includes planning and design of the highway-rail intersection information and numbering system. The second Phase of the project encompasses a field test of the inventory and numbering phases and paper flow procedure of the information system. The third phase calls for the collection of highway-rail intersection data on all highway-rail crossings in the U.S. The final phase will prepare information for automatic data processing and the coordination of additional input from the FHA and state and local highway authorities.
