Abstract:

This report documents the research involved in developing safe and efficient driving and routing strategies at highway-rail grade crossings (i.e., highway-rail intersections) based on highway-rail connectivity for economic evaluation, driver behavior analysis, and Eco-Driving and Eco-Routing strategies. From September 2019 to December 2022, a research team from Michigan Technological University led this project with a team from the University of Kentucky as an academic partner and Escanaba & Lake Superior (E&LS) Railroad as an industry partner. This project was sponsored by the Federal Railroad Administration through the 2018 Broad Agency Announcement on Intelligent Railroad System Research.
