Deluzio | D000530 | deluzio.house.gov | deluzio | https://deluzio.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | TARENTUM, PA – Today, Congressman Chris Deluzio (PA-17) celebrated the long-awaited road maintenance work by Norfolk Southern Railroad at a railroad crossing in Tarentum Borough. “Folks rely on these crossings to get where they need to go safely, and it shouldn’t take an act of Congress to get big railroads to fulfill their responsibilities in our communities,” said Rep. Deluzio. “The good folks of Tarentum should have strong infrastructure they can depend on. I’m glad I was able to help push the railroad to do the right thing here, and I thank them for answering our call to repair this crossing. I’ll never stop working to hold big railroads accountable in our community.” Located at the railroad crossing of Lock and Corbet Streets, the road beneath the tracks was severely deteriorated. However, because the roadway is owned by Norfolk Southern and not the Borough, Tarentum was unable to make the repairs themselves. The Borough requested the railroad do the needed maintenance work on their road back in April 2024, but it was only following Congressman Deluzio’s advocacy directly to the railroad that Norfolk Southern finally took action and scheduled the maintenance to fix the road. The repair work will help smooth traffic flow and improve safety of the vehicle crossings over the railroad tracks. The repairs occurred last week. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T22:07:06Z |
