Benefits
Daily, 19,400 vehicles pass through this crossing. This project will reduce roadway congestion and improve safety at this location. The grade crossing separation will eliminate delay to nearly 2,450 vehicles daily, resulting in alleviation of almost 18,700 annual motorist hours of delay. It will also eliminate the potential for collisions between vehicles and trains.



Scope of Work
The project will consider eliminating the at-grade crossing of Central Avenue at the two IHB tracks. This will be accomplished by creating either an overpass or underpass for vehicles at this location.
