Abstract Current levels of available resources to maintain and preserve the Pennsylvania short-line railroad bridge infrastructure require that important priority decisions be made on an annual basis. The primary objective of this study was to establish a reliable database of Pennsylvania SLRR bridges and to develop a risk-based bridge prioritization algorithm. A bridge survey of Pennsylvania short-line railroad owners and operators was conducted to develop a bridge database that would be as complete and accurate as possible given the available time and resources.

Richards. “These investments underscore our role in supporting jobs and economies across the state.” The State Transportation Commission (STC) voted today to approve $36 million for 15 projects through the Rail Transportation Assistance Program (RTAP) and 16 projects through the Rail Freight Assistance Program (RFAP). RTAP is a capital budget grant program funded with bonds and RFAP is underwritten through the new Multimodal Fund, created by Act 89. Act 89 is a far-reaching transportation program that clears the way for significant investments in all transportation modes. For more information on rail in Pennsylvania visit www.penndot.gov.
