Rail Crossing Locator Service Upgrade

We are pleased to announce the launch of the new Rail Crossing Locator Web Application, which replaces the previous mobile app. This web-based platform offers universal access across all desktop and mobile devices.

You can now access the Rail Crossing Locator at:

https://www.fra.dot.gov/railcrossinglocator

The Rail Crossing Locator allows emergency responders and the public to access information in FRA’s highway-rail grade crossing database and a variety of map features from a mobile device. The app allows users to locate crossings by U.S. DOT Crossing ID number, address, or geo-location.

Features:

• Search for, identify, and filter crossings by special characteristics
• Find and call the Emergency Notification Systems (ENS) number in case of an emergency or to report a safety concern
• Send non-emergency information pertaining to the grade crossing to FRA via email
• Access U.S. DOT Crossing Inventory records and collision report histories for crossings

The information accessed in the app is derived from the FRA Safety Data website that contains information submitted by states and railroads.
