To Weld County Commissioners Date June 29, 1981
COLORADO From Wayne Smyth, Director of Engineering
Subject: Reimbursement to Great Western Railway for Cost of Crossing on
Weld County Road 66
The Great Western Railway Company has submitted the attached letter to us
indicating their estimate of the cost of re-building the crossing at Weld
County Road 66 at Windsor. I have discussed the estimate with Mr. Andrews
of the Railway Company, who told me that it is their policy to completely
re-build the crossing, including providing the 115 lb. rails (in lieu of
the 90 lb. size) , as well as all the cross-ties under the intersection.
Their reasoning for this is that since they are responsible for the crossing
itself, they do not want to have to come back in and replace ties and rails
at a later date, should the crossing become rough or fail . The estimate
they have submitted of $11,318.00 is for complete replacement of the rails,
ties and associated hardware under the new crossing. They will do all the
work with their own crews and should the cost be less than anticipated,
they would bill us only for the actual cost. If the cost is greater than
anticipated, they, of course, would bill us for the actual cost, also.
I have discussed this matter both with the State Highway Department and our
County Attorney and they have both advised that in the case of putting a new
road over an existing railway crossing, we do not have a realistic alternative
to allowing the railroad to do their reconstruction prior to building the
road over the tracks.
In view of this, I can only recommend that the Board authorize reimbursement
of the railroad for the reconstruction described in their letter of June 10,
1981.
