The Department of Transportation Federal Railroad Administration awarded the San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments $2.2 million on November 1, 2025, under the Railroad Crossing Elimination program (CFDA 20.327) for the Alameda Corridor-East Phase III project, focused on grade separation and crossing closure improvements at highway-rail intersections in California through November 30, 2028.

The award funds grade separation and crossing closure activities at highway-rail grade crossings within the San Gabriel Valley region. The project performs under a three-year period of performance ending November 30, 2028, with obligated funding of $2.2 million. Performance occurs in California, USA.

Under the Railroad Crossing Elimination program, eligible projects include grade separation or closure using bridges, embankments, tunnels, or combinations thereof; track relocation; improvement or installation of protective devices, signals, signs, or other safety measures related to separation or relocation; other means to improve safety and mobility at grade crossings including technological solutions; groups of related projects that collectively improve mobility; and planning, environmental review, and design of eligible projects. The program evaluates proposed projects based on safety improvements, grade separation or elimination of crossings, mobility benefits, environmental protection and community benefits, emergency services access, economic benefits, and access restoration for communities separated by rail crossings.
