The U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) offers the Railroad Crossing Elimination Grant Program. The program will fund highway-rail or pathway-rail crossing improvements that focus on improving the safety and mobility of people and goods.
USDOT will award more than $1.14 billion this fiscal year. The bipartisan infrastructure law authorizes the funds each fiscal year through 2026.
The program will fund improvement projects that cost at least $1 million, although awards could be smaller for planning projects. Improvements may include installing or improving crossings, crossing signals, gates, traffic signals, lighting, signage, medians, barriers, and more to reduce risk.
The Kentucky League of Cities serves as the united voice of cities by supporting community innovation, effective leadership and quality governance.
