WORTH TX t M&C Review Page 1 of 2 Official site of the City of Fort Worth,Texas CITY COUNCIL AGENDA FoRRTH COUNCIL ACTION: Approved on 2/5/2019 REFERENCE ** 20TRINITY RAILWAY EXPRESS DATE: 2/5/2019 NO.: G-19474 LOG NAME: QUIET ZONE ESTABLISHMENT CODE: G TYPE: CONSENT PUBLIC NO NO SUBJECT: Authorize Establishment of Two Quiet Zones at the Trinity Railway Express (TRE) Railroad Crossings at Tarrant Main Street and Calloway Cemetery Road (COUNCIL DISTRICT 5) RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council: 1. Authorize the execution of a Notice of Quiet Zone Establishment for two locations - TRE Railroad Crossings at Tarrant Main Street and Calloway Cemetery Road after the necessary construction has been completed at each location; and 2. Authorize execution of engineering agreements as may be required with TRE. DISCUSSION: The Transportation and Public Works Department proposes to create quiet zones, which will allow trains to proceed through street crossings without sounding their train horns, thereby reducing noise levels in the surrounding residential areas. These quiet zones will be implemented pursuant to the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) Train Horn rule at the two crossings listed below: TRE at Tarrant Main Street(Council District 5) TRE at Calloway Cemetery Road (Council District 5) The residents adjacent to these two crossings have contacted the Transportation and Public Works Department to request the implementation of quiet zones at these crossings. Trinity Metro, DART, and Viridian Holding LP, (Viridian), an Arlington Developer, together have funded the construction for the quiet zones at both Trinity Railway Express (TRE) crossings. The construction at the TRE & Tarrant Main is complete, and the construction at TRE & Calloway Cemetery is in progress and are expected to be completed by the end of 2019, at which point the City would execute and submit the Notice of Establishment to the FRA and railroad.
