The total estimated cost to install flashing light signals and gates with a bell, controlled by constant warning time circuitry, is $222,330. The Grade Crossing Protection Fund will pay 85 percent of the signal installation costs, not to exceed $188,981. The City will pay 10 percent of the signal installation costs, and Norfolk Southern will pay all remaining installation costs, as well as all future operating and maintenance costs related to the new automatic warning devices.

All work is to be completed by Oct. 8, 2010.
