To make Fairbanks roads safer and to help drivers spend less time waiting for morning trains to pass, transportation officials want to improve railroad crossings across the area by adding warning signs, automating train switches and elevating portions of rail tracks. Fairbanks Area Surface Transportation Planning, known as fast FAST Planning, Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities, as well as the Alaska Railroad Corporation, completed a year-and-a-half long project at the end of May, analyzing 15 areas with 69 railroad crossings, excluding those within Fort Wainwright. For each crossing, they offered “low cost, minor improvements that would help with safety and help reduce congestion and frustration with drivers in those locations,” said Jackson Fox, the director of FAST Planning, an agency which promotes country-wide transportation initiatives.
