State Actions For Employing Transportation Risk Assessments and Crossing Knowledge Strategies Act

The bill would amend federal law to require states to include in their periodic highway-rail grade crossing safety reports a description of how they will work with stakeholders—including railroads, mental health agencies, and law enforcement—to reduce pedestrian fatalities, including suicides, along railroad rights of way. It also changes the reporting frequency from periodic to every five years, specifying that reports must be submitted to the Administrator of the Federal Railroad Administration. The measure affects state transportation agencies and aims to improve safety coordination around rail corridors by integrating mental health and law enforcement collaboration into safety planning.
