Begin planning for railroad quiet zone at Wright Avenue crossing
In Plain English
Trains currently sound horns when crossing Wright Avenue at Harbour Way South, creating noise for nearby residents. The city would study what improvements are needed to qualify for federal quiet zone status, which allows trains to pass without sounding horns. If approved, staff prepares design plans and cost estimates for the required safety upgrades.
