This document is a Railroad Reimbursement Agreement between the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), CSX Transportation Inc. (a railroad company based in Jacksonville, Florida), and the City of Tampa, for a railroad crossing improvement project located at North 43rd Street in Hillsborough County, Florida. The agreement involves the installation of cantilever flashing lights and gates at the railroad crossing, with the project being federally funded under Section 130.

The total project cost is $311,595.00, which will be funded outside of CSX's budget. The work includes installing Type II Class III and other traffic control devices at the crossing, with 50% of the annual maintenance costs to be shared between the City of Tampa and CSX. The project involves signal and communications work, track labor, and related improvements at the railroad crossing. The agreement is set to run from December 28, 2021, to December 30, 2050, and includes provisions for procurement restrictions, Buy America requirements, and adherence to federal and state regulations. The project will utilize the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's E-Verify system for employment eligibility verification and requires the use of steel and iron manufactured in the United States.
