Florida Rail Safety Coalition


Welcome

Railroads have played an essential role in America's economy, society, and way of life for almost two centuries. They are a crucial part of our multimodal transportation system, enabling the movement of goods and people where they need to go. Despite significant efforts to improve rail safety, there are still crossing and trespassing incidents. The Florida Rail Safety Coalition is FDOT’s new effort to help engage and collaborate with technical stakeholders. The FRSC consists of rail industry partners at the local, state, and federal levels, all dedicated to ensuring the safety of our communities around trains and tracks.

These representatives include:

  • Subject Matter Experts
  • FDOT team members
  • Public and Private Rail Organizations (Freight and Passenger)
  • Rail Advocacy Groups
  • Rail Safety Inspectors
  • Law Enforcement
  • Universities
  • Human Services Agencies, and;
  • Local Communities
