The Board of County Commissioners will consider a letter from the City of Ocala dated June 18, 2026, regarding an amendment to a Notice of Quiet Zone Establishment, referenced as THR #00000011270. This item is currently pending review and is scheduled for the September 15, 2026, meeting. The letter concerns a quiet zone, which is an area where train horns are not routinely sounded at railroad crossings. The amendment would adjust the existing notice for this quiet zone. The scope of work, if approved, would involve coordination between the county and the city, and may include updates to signage, crossing signals, or other safety infrastructure. Contractors and suppliers specializing in traffic control, signage, and railroad crossing equipment could find opportunities. Reaching out to the county and city early, before any final decisions are made, is the best way to learn about potential work.
