Selection and Installation of Grade Crossing Warning Systems; Termination of Rulemaking

Termination of rulemaking.

This notice terminates rulemaking action in FRA Docket No. FSGC-6. In its Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM), FRA proposed to prohibit railroads from unilaterally selecting and installing highway- rail grade crossing warning systems at public highway-rail crossings. FRA also proposed to require that railroads furnish state highway authorities with information necessary for state grade crossing project planning and prioritization purposes. Termination of this rulemaking is based on public comments and FRA's determination that railroad safety will not be best served by issuance of such a regulation at this time.
