Track Safety

Track Safety

Rail safety is for everyone, not just drivers. Pedestrians who choose to walk or play around railroad tracks are trespassing on private property and could be fined, seriously injured, or killed.

Train Quiet Zones

Rocklin has established a railroad crossing Quiet Zone working with the US Department of Transportation, the Federal Railroad Administration’s “Train Horn Rule.”  The City also worked closely with the California Public Utilities Commission, the Union Pacific Railroad, and Amtrak to ensure adherence to the federal regulation.
