The project scope includes installation of new flashing light signals, roadway gates, and audible bells at the crossings, along with updated circuitry and software systems. Additionally, the award funds replacement of the bungalow structure associated with the railroad crossing operations.

The project is scheduled for completion by September 30, 2028. As a formula grant under the Highway Planning and Construction program, this funding supports highway safety improvements and infrastructure modernization, consistent with the program's emphasis on enhancing safety and efficiency across the nation's transportation network. The work will be executed by the State Highway Administration division, which has demonstrated substantial capacity in managing federal transportation infrastructure projects across Maryland.
