When any railroad changes the grades of its tracks where the tracks cross or intersect any road, street, or highway of the State highway system, the railroad shall be responsible for adjusting, at its own expense, the grade of such road, street or highway as required to meet the change in grade of the railroad's tracks or facilities. Any adjustment of the road, street or highway shall be made in accordance with Departmental engineering standards. A minimum of ten feet runoff shall be required for each inch of difference in elevation between track grade and road grade. The Department may contract with the railroad to perform the asphalt run-off work on a 100 percent reimbursement basis.
