Rail Grade Crossing

About

Stop. Trains Can't.

Rail grade crossings are a part of most communities, so it’s important to include rail grade crossing safety messaging in your road safety communication plan. Efforts should focus on educating the public about the dangers associated with rail grade crossings and promoting safe behaviors.

Many assets are available in English and Spanish. Share this information with partner organizations to help spread the message across all communities. 

A reminder: Rail Safety Week is in September – a good opportunity to increase safety messaging across all platforms.
