OKLAHOMA CITY (KFOR) – Oklahomans may soon have a new form of moving from point A to point B according to a partnership with the Oklahoma Department of Transportation (ODOT) and the Regional Transportation Authority (RTA) of Central Oklahoma in developing a regional transit system.
RTA and ODOT were awarded $400,000 through the Railroad Crossing Elimination Program (RCE) by the U.S. Department of Transportation to evaluate 52 at-grade crossings from Edmond to Norman.
The RCE project seeks to analyze strategies that highlight community needs and safety with traffic flow at rail crossings. The goal would be to enhance safety along busy corridors with various transportation modes that improve accessibility to businesses.
