045-1 Wyo. Code R. §§ 1-4 - Procedure for Establishing or Closing At-grade Crossings
(a) Using the appropriate WYDOT form, a
railroad, or a public road agency, shall apply to the Commission for
authorization to establish or close an at-grade crossing, except temporary
crossings and detours.
(b) When it
receives an application, or when the public interest clearly indicates action
should be taken, upon its own motion, the Commission shall establish a
diagnostic team including representatives of the railroad, the public road
agency, and WYDOT to review the application.
(c) Before establishing or closing an
at-grade crossing, the diagnostic team shall use the appropriate safety,
traffic, cost, maintenance, and engineering factors to evaluate the
application, and it shall base its recommendations on these factors.
(d) The tentative recommendations of the
diagnostic team shall be submitted to all public road agencies affected by the
proposed crossing change. Public road agencies may provide comments regarding
the diagnostic team's tentative recommendations. The diagnostic team may hold a
public meeting to solicit public comment and to disseminate the diagnostic
team's tentative recommendations to the public. The diagnostic team shall
consider these comments in formulating its final recommendations.
(e) The diagnostic team shall submit its
final findings and recommendations to the Commission.
