Joint Responsibility

Areas of maintenance that generally require
either
a joint effort by TxDOT and the railroad company or may be governed by a specific agreement include:
  • Common ditches.
  • Pipes, culverts and conduits on railroad right of way or under tracks.
  • Traffic signal preemption and associated interconnection with the railroad cabin (see Section 2 for details).
Any sight inspections of crossing locations should be verified against existing inventory in TRIMS and corrected as needed.
Pictures
of the crossing should also be taken and uploaded as the most current photos of the crossing.
