Section 130 Highway-Rail Grade
Crossing Safety Program
Since 1973 Congress has provided dedicated
funding for states to implement safety
improvement projects at highway-rail grade
crossings. This funding has been a part of
every surface transportation act since 1973
and, at the urging of RSI, was continued in
SAFETEA-LU at $220 million per fiscal year.
The Chairman of the House T & I Commit-
tee, Jim Oberstar (D-Minn.), has introduced
his version of SAFETEA-LU Reauthorization
titled, the Surface Transportation Authoriza-
tion Act of 2009. This bill would provide
$500 billion in total transportation funding,
with nearly $100 billion for public transporta-
tion and $50 billion for high-speed rail.
Unfortunately, this bill terminates the Section
