Expect frequent train horns and longer traffic delays the rest of this month as Brightline upgrades track and signal systems at railroad crossings in Boca Raton in preparation for the Brightline Boca Raton station.

Beginning Monday, Oct. 17, flaggers will be present at the crossings listed below and drivers can expect additional wait times, the railway said.

Horns will sound — even in quiet zones — for all trains including Brightline passenger trains and freight trains.

This is in adherence to the federal regulation that states train horns must be sounded if workers are present or work is occurring in or near the right of way.

Brightline is reminding the public, pedestrians, motorists and cyclists to never stop on the tracks and to not drive around crossing gates.
