| Abstract | In California, rail-highway safety is a partnership between the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), and Caltrans, the State transportation agency that receives Federal-aid funds, including Section 130 Railway-Highway Crossings Program funding. CPUC prioritizes and selects safety improvement projects under the Section 130 Program by using a two-phase methodology. The first phase analyzes data to identify and rank crossings with potential safety issues, and the second phase involves conducting a rail-highway diagnostic review to determine the specific safety needs of the highest ranked intersections. |
