Description
How can we request to create a "Quiet Zone" ("No Train Horn") zone at this intersection? Based on what the DOT website has at https://railroads.dot.gov/elibrary/how-create-quiet-zone, the railroad crossings here have SSMs in place which would make these two crossing eligible to be Quiet Zones. Right now, train horns blast daily, sometimes in the early morning hours which is a nuisance, so much that it has to be declared on property disclosures which has impact on property values. It's not fun being awakened at 5:00am by blasting horns. Since the crossings already meet criteria for Quiet Zones, it would be great to have those implemented. Thank you!
