Dangerous New Castle Metro-North crossing to get new $107M overpass

A dangerous Metro-North Railroad crossing along the Saw Mill River Parkway in New Castle will be replaced with a $107 million overpass. The Roaring Brook Road crossing is among 91 projects across 37 states that will split $1.24 billion in funding earmarked for rail crossing safety upgrades, the Federal Railroad Administration announced Friday, Oct. 30. It’s the largest of the grants, surpassing the $90 million California received to eliminate a crossing in Burlingame. The New York State Department of Transportation will pick up 20% of the cost to design and build the overpass. The Harlem Line crossing has been the scene of dozens of accidents. Some 9,000 vehicles and over 100 passenger trains pass through every day. What to know about Roaring Brook Road crossing funds “Protecting the traveling public and enhancing the backbone of our nation’s transportation system — our rail network — is all part of the Trump administration's commitment to move people and products better than ever,” said U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy. New York’s U.S. senators, Democrats Charles Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand, have advocated for the changes. Schumer appeared in Garrison four years ago to highlight the need for rail crossing eliminations in New Castle

Subway Safety for Women in NYC

Subway safety has continued to be of concern for women across NYC since the first underground rapid transit network opened in 1904. Over 100 years later, women are concerned for their safety as they board subway train. Women’s uneasiness permeates regardless of whether the train is packed or empty, if it is day or night, or if one is alone or with a group of people. Many women consciously keep their guard up throughout their commute, scanning the lengths of the train car they are in, or even tilting their heads to peer through the neighboring train car windows.
