As you may have heard us mention, SFRTA not only maintains the 73.5-mile South Florida Rail Corridor where Tri-Rail, CSX Transportation, and Amtrak operate, but also an additional 54 miles of freight service spur tracks.
Recently, our team completed rail infrastructure improvements at the NW 22nd Ave. crossing in Miami as part of a roadway surface rehabilitation project. The work included rail cutting, a flowable fill pour, installation of a precast concrete tub grade crossing, and the addition of a dynamic envelope.
Concrete tub grade crossings provide a durable, stable surface for vehicles while maintaining proper rail alignment. Designed for high-traffic locations, they offer a smoother ride, reduce long-term maintenance, and enhance safety for both roadway users and rail operations.
These upgrades make the crossing safer for drivers, pedestrians, and trains alike, while helping ensure the continued safe and efficient movement of both passenger and freight rail service throughout South Florida. 🚆🚧
