The push for community voices on transportation safety is creating a buzz across Jonesboro, as officials turn to residents to shape future road improvements.
The City of Jonesboro has launched a public‑input phase of its Rail Crossing Elimination Study, asking residents to identify the railroad crossings that cause the greatest concern for traffic delays, safety, access or congestion. Feedback will be collected through an online SurveyMonkey questionnaire and a downloadable PDF form, with the survey closing on October 12, 2026, and will help guide the study’s next steps.
Public Survey Opens for Rail Crossing Study
The City of Jonesboro announced the opening of a public‑input period for its Rail Crossing Elimination Study. Officials are seeking residents’ opinions on which railroad crossings present the biggest issues. The goal is to better understand traffic delays, safety concerns, access problems and congestion.
Residents can share their views by completing an online survey hosted on SurveyMonkey. A printable PDF version of the questionnaire is also available for those who prefer a paper copy. The survey will remain open until October 12, 2026.
The city encourages participants to distribute the survey to anyone who regularly travels through Jonesboro’s railroad crossings. Hashtags such as #JonesboroAlwaysMoving and #RailCrossingStudy are being used to spread awareness. This outreach aims to capture a broad range of community experiences.
Results of the feedback have not yet been released, and the specific crossings that will be prioritized remain unknown at this time. The City of Jonesboro will use the collected input to inform subsequent phases of the study. Further updates are expected after the survey period ends.
