Abstract:

Highway-Railroad grade crossings are an integral part of the transportation system, allowing the

two modes to operate in the same areas. Performance of the surface material at grade

crossings has been an ongoing issue. This study reviewed the literature available on grade

crossing surface materials and the crossing records available from MDOT in an attempt to

determine which surface materials perform best for given traffic levels and site conditions. The

study team found that the data currently available was not adequate to perform credible analysis

of the situation, and recommended additions to the grade crossing data collected by MDOT, and

a reporting method for that data. The team also made recommendations on a method to

improve the rating system used by MDOT inspectors for crossing surface condition.
