VIRTUAL PUBLIC MEETING!
Please join us on December 18 at 11am for a virtual public meeting presenting the project findings of the Kingston Railroad Crossing Study.
The presentation will be recorded and posted online
The Ulster County Transportation Council, in partnership with the City of Kingston, is conducting a Rail Crossing Safety Study to evaluate and enhance safety along the regional West Shore (CSX) Railroad Corridor in the City of Kingston. The study assesses existing street crossings, crashes, and trespass incidents along the rail corridor while considering the impact of surrounding land uses. Findings and data from the City of Kingston/Town of Ulster Quiet Zone Study (2006) will be reassessed and considered as part of this effort.
A final Virtual Open House will be held on December 18th at 3:00pm. Register to participate online at [zoom link]. Missed the previous in-person and virtual open house sessions from 2023? Please watch a recording of the 10/25/23 virtual open house presentation below!

Share I don't really know how to mitigate the existing inherently dangerous rail crossings and right of way trespass issues. Still I wish all the best with the meeting. One thing I will say is I was a school bus monitor with a local company and was made aware that school buses could not use the crossing in town of Ulster , near Morton Blvd and the Stewart's. Seems a fix of any degree will help, good luck on FacebookShare I don't really know how to mitigate the existing inherently dangerous rail crossings and right of way trespass issues.

Thank you for your comment. While the crossing at Boices Lane in the Town of Ulster is outside the scope of this project, the Town and their consultant firm are presently engaged with CSX and NYSDOT to design and construct improvements to the signals at Morton, Boices, and John Clark Blvd. Construction is presently estimated to take place in late 2026.
