According to the Federal Railroad Administration, trains travel across more than 212,000 highway-rail grade crossings in the United States every day. Railroad crossings are some of the most heavily trafficked stretches of track, suffering constant wear from cars and trucks as well as trains.

When a crossing needs to be demolished and replaced, you need a contractor with experience in railroad crossing construction, along with certified personnel and the equipment needed to do the job. Hulcher Services has decades of experience with demolishing and installing railroad crossings at rail yards and on the right-of-way.  Some of the tasks we perform as part of railroad crossing construction include:

• Demolish old railroad crossing
• Remove old track panel and install new track panel
• Cut road's ballast to sub grade then complete grading
  
• Clean surface of loose materials
  
• Lay and roll new asphalt
  
• Dispose of old gravel, asphalt and other materials
  

Railroad crossing construction projects are often performed in conjunction with asphalt projects and road construction projects.

Hulcher's crews have been background checked, trained and certified to work for all Class I Railroads so they are safe and qualified to perform railroad crossing construction at rail yards and on the right-of-way. Hulcher brings a level of experience, railroad professionalism and the right qualifications to asphalt, paving and pothole repair tasks that no other contractor’s personnel can match.
