🚨Open House - Community members are invited to an open house for the Moonlight Road Railroad Crossing Study.

📅 Tuesday, June 23, 2026
🕔 5:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m.
📍 Gardner City Hall Council Chambers, 120 E. Main Street

This planning study will evaluate grade-separation alternatives at the Moonlight Road/BNSF highway-rail crossing. Attendees will be able to review potential improvement options and provide feedback to the project team.

The goal of the study is to identify solutions that reduce conflicts between trains, vehicles, pedestrians and bicyclists and improve overall safety and mobility in the area.

⚠️ Please note: construction funding has not yet been identified.

This project is part of the Railroad Crossing Elimination Program (RCE), a federal grant program administered by the U.S. Department of Transportation that focuses on improving safety and mobility at roadway-railroad intersections.

We encourage community members to attend, review the options and share their input.
