| 25. DESCRIPTION OF REQUEST |
| Increase budget |
| 26. JUSTIFICATION |
| Costs for the railroad to complete this work increased due to higher costs for construction of a temporary crossing to allow emergency services to cross the railroad tracks during the road closure, law enforcement assistance during the road closure, and asphalt cost increases due to price escalation in the construction market. The original scope of work has not changed and this work is eligible for Section 130 program. Includes ICAP. |

| 25. DESCRIPTION OF REQUEST |
| Establish a new project. |
| 26. JUSTIFICATION |
| This is a Section 130 rail-highway safety project. The surface of this crossing is failing. Concrete panels are lifting up and bouncing, bolts are broken, and chunks of concrete are breaking off. BNSF Railway has been doing maintenance every couple of months and it doesn`t last. The crossing surface is continuing to get worse. The District is concerned it won`t last until spring. Two sets of tracks move 80 trains per day through this crossing at speeds of 90 mph. The volume of traffic has increased considerably for this area. The project will completely replace and upgrade the crossing surface. Construction work by BNSF Railway consists of installing a continuous concrete surface to extend across the sidewalk and between the two sets of tracks. BNSF will also install a geogrid and under drain below the tracks to provide stability and address flood plain drainage. The result will be a stable, solid "beefed up" crossing that will last 10-15 years. Our coordination efforts with BNSF, ADOT District, Navajo county, and the City of Holbrook include a road closure and detour. This critical safety project to replace and upgrade the failing crossing surface is phase one. In the future, we will look at improving the signaling as phase two. FHWA agrees that this crossing has become more than a maintenance issue and therefore, justifies using Section 130 funding. BNSF is willing to split construction costs 60/40, with BNSF contributing the 60pct. 01D cost estimates are 100pct Section 130 funding: ADOT- oversight, coordination, clearances - $30k ADOT- traffic control, permits - $60k ICAP - $9k |
