Report to the City Council
Railroad Crossing Safety Improvements
November 27, 2007
Page 2
from the California Public Utilities Commission/Rail Safety Division (CPUC), Caltrans Division of
Rail, the City of Fresno and the BNSF Railroad have agreed on the scope of work and cost
estimates for the work, as reflected in the proposed agreements between the City and State.
The agreements have been reviewed as to form by the City Attorney's Office. Upon execution of
the agreements, the State will provide the City and BNSF their notices to proceed, after which
the safety improvement projects may begin. It is anticipated that the work will require several
months to complete.
KEY OBJECTIVE BALANCE
The recommended action promotes Financial Management by the City accepting State funds for
these improvements. The action promotes Customer Satisfaction and Employee Satisfaction by
improving safety at the crossing and minimizing the potential for accidents between trains and
vehicular traffic.
BACKGROUND
As provided by Title 23, United States Code, Section 130 (23 U.S.C. 130), the Section 130
Program provides Federal funds for the elimination of hazards at existing at -grade highway -rail
crossings (crossings). The purpose of Section 130 Program is to reduce the number, severity
and potential of hazards to motorists, bicyclists, and pedestrians at crossings. The Section 130
program is a cooperative effort between the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), California
Department of Transportation (Caltrans), California Public Utilities Commission (Commission),
railroad companies and local agencies. The Section 130 funds are distributed to each State
based on Federal formulas and then administered in California by the CPUC and Caltrans
Division of Rail.
Crossings are selected for inclusion in the State-wide funding list based on their hazard
potential. There are a number of sources the Commission staff uses to identify crossings that
present a high hazard potential. These include the Federal Railroad Administration's (FRA) Web
Accident Prediction System, crossing accident history and trends, the Commission's crossing
database, Commission staff, local agencies, and railroads. Commission staff reviews each
identified crossing. The review determines which crossings are considered for Section 130
funds. This is based upon such factors as the Federal program requirements, eligibility criteria,
and if there are improvements which can be made to reduce hazards that are covered by the
Section 130 program.
Each year, Public Works engineers participate with the railroads and CPUC staff in an all -day
diagnostic field review of every crossing in the City of Fresno that is eligible for funding. These
crossings are then given a priority ranking by the CPUC based on several factors, including the
US Department of Transportation (U.S. DOT) Accident Prediction Formula. Due to the finite
amount of funding, the final priority list is created based on the highest ranking crossings.
Commission staff annually provides the updated priority list of projects to Caltrans. Caltrans is
then responsible for developing contracts. Caltrans uses the final priority list to obligate funding
in order of priority.

Caltrans Division of Rail has worked with City staff to finalize the contractual agreements for the
three crossings. BNSF is contracting directly with Caltrans for work in railroad right-of-way
including installation of standard gates and warning devices. The City's agreement with Caltrans
Division of Rail provides funding for the City to install median islands and restripe the roadway in
order that a railroad gate arm may be installed in the median for safety purposes. At the Palm
Avenue/BNSF crossing, the improvements will also include an upgrade to the Palm/Dakota
traffic signal for protected left tum phasing and the current CPUC standard of railroad signal
preemption. Depending upon availability of City street maintenance crews at the time the
railroad is ready to begin; the work will either be performed by City crews or bid out to private
contractors.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funding of improvements at each railroad crossing will come from Federal or State grants
administered by the Caltrans Division of Rail and will not require any matching funds from the
City.
