Abstract
SPR 25-679, Analyzing Railroad Grade Crossing Crashes in Kentucky and Creating New KYTC Railroad Safety Initiatives
KYTC is concerned with the safety of highway-railroad grade crossings because vehicle crashes at these
locations are typically fatal. Between 2015 and 2019, 14 railroad-related crashes occurred in Kentucky — 13
were fatal. KYTC is moving forward with its Vision Zero initiative, and it is essential to assess safety at highway railroad
grade crossings and identify appropriate countermeasures (e.g., install/update warning signs, signals,
and bells) to reduce injury and fatal crashes.
