LB 175 Legislature · 109th Legislature (2025-2026)

Provide duties for the successor in interest of a railroad

LB 175 requires railroads or their successors in interest to maintain at least one safe crossing for landowners whose property borders both sides of a railroad right-of-way. If a landowner believes a crossing is unsafe, they can file a written complaint with the Nebraska Department of Transportation, which must investigate and order necessary repairs or upgrades. For crossings costing over $1,500 to fix, the landowner covers half the cost above that threshold. This bill directly affects landowners with dual-sided property and railroads/successors managing right-of-way crossings.
