Grade Crossing Improvements


Maintaining the condition of grade crossings is an important aspect of safety and on-time performance. Working with Pan Am Railways and Amtrak, NNEPRA annually identifies grade crossing locations in need of maintenance to ensure safety and reliability of service. In 2021 this included the grade crossing at Allen Avenue in Portland, Maine.
