Illinois Commerce Commission approves five rail-crossing safety projects
Summary
The Illinois Commerce Commission approved five orders (RR-1–RR-5) authorizing public-safety improvement projects, time extensions and funding assistance through the Grade Crossing Protection Fund for rail crossings across Illinois.
The Illinois Commerce Commission approved five orders on Thursday approving public-safety improvement projects at multiple highway-rail grade crossings across Illinois.
Mr. Scott presented Items RR-1 through RR-5 and said the orders "approve projects and stipulated agreements, grant project time extensions, and authorize funding assistance through the Grade Crossing Protection Fund." The commission considered the items together and, hearing no objections, approved the orders.
The actions authorize project work and make available assistance from the Grade Crossing Protection Fund to support improvements at crossings identified in the orders. The transcript does not list the specific crossing locations, contractors, or funding amounts in the record provided.
The commission moved on to Item RR-6, a separate citation matter, after approving RR-1 through RR-5. No votes, roll-call tallies, or names of makers/seconders for the motion appear in the transcript excerpt.
