COMMENTS: See Pages 3 & 4 for a Location Sketch (Aerial Photo) of the crossing, and suggested profile corrections, respectively. Pike County Highway Department (County) has estimated roadway approach costs, in the amount of $160,000, will be necessary to meet the minimum grade requirements of 92 Ill. Adm. Code 1535.204. Staff recommends that the Grade Crossing Protection Fund (GCPF) be used to pay 100% of the estimated approach costs, in an amount not to exceed $160,000. Staff would normally recommend that the New Salem Township Road District pay 100% of the costs for the approach grade improvements. Due to documented financial hardship (Exhibit D), the Road District is unable to pay the costs for the approach grade improvements. Staff considers the proposed approach improvements important enough to recommend that the GCPF be used to pay those costs.
