Description
The Coast Guard proposes to change the operating schedule for the Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) drawbridge crossing the San Bernard River near Brazoria, TX. The drawbridge is proposed to be operated remotely 24 hours a day from the UPRR Train Dispatch Center in Spring, TX, replacing the onsite bridge tender. The remote operation system includes cameras and sensors to monitor the bridge and waterway, with safety protocols requiring the bridge to remain open to boats if any system failures occur. Comments on this proposed rulemaking are invited by September 8, 2026.
