Federal grants administered through TxDOT will support the Northeast 23rd Street and Decatur Avenue grade separation project, which will elevate streets over multiple railroad tracks. The $98 million project is intended to eliminate seven at-grade crossings and improve mobility and safety.
Major federal funds awarded for Fort Worth’s railroad crossings
The Transportation & Public Works department presented proposed railroad grade separation priorities identified through the City's Master Transportation Plan to improve safety and mobility at Fort Worth's more than 200 public at-grade railroad crossings, where blocked crossings cause over 5,100 vehicle-hours of delay daily. Twenty-six potential grade separation projects are being evaluated, including the N.E. 23rd Street/Decatur Avenue Grade Separation Project.
