NORTH CENTRAL TEXAS COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS RAILROAD WARNING DEVICE INSTALLATION PROJECTS TYPICAL PROJECT PROGRESSION SEQUENCE STEP 1 Receive and execute Local Project Advance Funding
Agreement (LPAFA) from TxDOT district office. Return it to TxDOT district office for final execution. STEP 2 Coordinate with TxDOT district office and the railroad company to schedule
a diagnostic inspection of each site. STEP 3 Prepare a set of plans (Exhibit A) for the installation of the warning devices based upon information gathered at the diagnostic inspection.
Submit those plans to TxDOT district office for review and comment STEP 4 Prepare an agreement between the local authority and the railroad company for the installation of the warning
devices. Submit two originals of this agreement along with the plans (Exhibit A) to the railroad for approval and execution. The cover letter to the railroad company with this submittal
should include some phrasing stating that the railroad company is authorized to begin engineering of the project contingent upon approval of the agreement The railroad company should
return both originals to the local authority for final execution along with the circuit layout and estimate from the railroad's engineering contractor or department Compile all of these
documents together into a complete PS&E package (Exhibit B) and distribute copies to all parties involved (railroad original back to them, fully executed). STEPS The railroad company
will request a Work Order so that they may begin installation. The local authority should complete all curb work, median work, or other roadway modifications needed to accommodate the
railroad force account work prior to issuing the work order to the railroad company. STEP 6 (Recommended) The local authority should have an inspector visit the site on a daily basis
to insure that the installation is proceeding as planned and in a timely manner. STEP 7 (Recommendedl When the work is completed, a final inspection of the site should be done. It is
most efficient if this inspection can be accomplished at the time the signal is cut-over, or placed in selVice. However, if that cannot be done, the railroad should send an in-selVice
notification to the local authority, which can then coordinate with the railroad company to schedule the final inspection.

WITNESSETH WHEREAS, the State and the Railroad propose to install a highway-railroad grade crossing warning system at the crossing shown on the layout marked Exhibit "A", attached hereto
and made a part hereof. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration ofthe mutual undertakings as herein set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows: AGREEMENT I. RIGHTS. The Railroad and the
State agree to the joint installation ofa grade crossing warning system across Railroad property at the intersection ofthe track and highway listed on Exhibit"A". 2. CONDITIONS. These
rights, given hereby, shall not in any way conflict or interfere with any prior or existing existing rights ofthe Railroad at the crossing. It is agreed that ifthere are future track
modifications at the crossing, the Railroad will restore the highway to proper condition and restore the functional operation ofthe warning system. 3. DESIGN -PLANS AND ESTIMATE. The
State will trnnsmit to the Railroad, for approval, a plan layout .for the proposed grade crossing warning system and the Railroad will transmit to the State a detailed cost estimate
and circuit diagram plan. The estimate and diagram will reflect the same design as the State plan layout. After having been approved by the State, said plans and estimate are to be marked
Exhibit "Bn and, by reference, are to be made a part hereof. All traffic control devices installed herein shall comply with the latest edition ofthe Texas Manual on Unifunn Traffic controrDevi::aSjre

RAILRO"AD CROSSING RELIABILITY PARTNERSHIP PROGRAM Call-For..Projects Rules 1. Eligible project types Include closures, Improved gates, structural barriers, channelization, Intelligent
Transportation Systems, Improvements to roadway geometrlcs or site lines, Improved crossing surfaces, access roads, pedestrian or bicycle facilities, Improved signs or warning devices,
and other capital expenses necessary to Improve the safety anellor reliability of an at-grade railroad crossing. 2. Project applicants may access the appllcatfon on the NCTCOG website
at http://www.nctcog.orglcrOsslngs. 3. All applicants must provide a signed paper copy of their complete application to NCTCOG no later than 5:00 p.m., Friday, October 24,2003. 4. All
projects require a minimum non-federal share of 20"11.. 5. Private enttties may submit projects for consideration but funds shall only flow through local govemment entities. 6. Minimum
federal award of $100,000 per project. (Requires a minimum $25,000 local match.) 7. Maximum federal federal award of $800,000 per crossing. (Requires a minimum $200,000 local match.)
8. Overmatching the projects with additional non-federal funds is allowed. 9. The federal share at submittals from any single entity may not exceed half of all available federal funds
($4,695,000). 10. Right-at-way acquisition costs are not eligible for funding under this call-far-projects. 11. Given the limited availability of federal funds and the need to expedite
Improvements, proJect applicants are encouraged to cover the full cost of design, engineering and administration with non-federal funds. 12. Federal funds will not be eligible to fund
cost overruns. 13. NCTCOG staff will generate final project ranklngs by benefit/cost comparison. 14. The Regional Transportation Council has final authority on project selection. PAGES

Partnership Program Mike: SOme good news: The NCTCOG Regional Transportation Council has approved staffs recommendations for projects to be included in the above referenced program.
The 2 projects that we applied for were to install quad gates at the Addison Road and Surveyor Blvd. railroad crossings effectively qualifying them as a quiet zone crossings. The total
project cost was estimated to be $630,000 and we are eligible for a grant of $504,000 toward the project. We have DART LAP/CMS funds programmed to cover our local share. Jim Pierce,
