“we have to first study if we can eliminate any of the crossings and if we can't then what can we do to mitigate the risks”

“to mitigate the risks are pavement markings to show where cars are supposed to stop before they cross the tracks we can do flashing lights we can do Crossing signage or just overhead arms that stop traffic when a train comes through”

“if the city wants to establish a quiet Zone that has to be approved by the Federal Railroad Administration they have to look at the RIS the mitigation risk tactics that we want to do at each Crossing we would have to implement those mitigation risk improvements and then we would be able to implement that quiet Zone with them and through them that process is a multi-year Endeavor”
