File Number: 22-342 Halcyon Drive is a four-lane road with two lanes in each direction of travel running east-west. At the westbound approach to Washington Avenue intersection the two travel lanes diverge into 2 left turn lanes, 2 through lanes and a right turn lane. The railway crosses Halcyon Drive through the westbound intersection approach and the right turn lane begins only after the rail crossing. Extending the right turn lane farther back will allow right turning vehicles to align earlier thereby vacating the through lane for through traffic and improving the efficiency of the intersection. Analysis Under this Agreement, UPRR will install railroad improvements including crossing gates, flashing light warning devices and concrete panels that provide a flat driving/walking surface between the rail tracks. The estimated $1,074,592 cost of these improvements will be paid in full to UPRR by the Developer. To construct its improvements, UPRR will require a full closure of Halcyon Drive for a 72-hour period. The Developer, at its cost, will install all highway improvements including widening of Halcyon Drive, new sidewalk, widened median, relocated traffic control equipment, pavement markings, and new signs. UPRR and the City agreed to $78,000 for right-of-way access. The fee is based upon a square foot cost provided by an appraiser and the increased footprint area within railroad property to accommodate the widening of Halcyon Drive. The cost of this fee will be paid in full by the Developer. On completion of the project, previous existing Agreements for this grade crossing location will terminate and the terms and conditions of this Agreement will govern use, maintenance, and repair of this grade crossing.
