Officials say they're still working out construction plans and timelines, but they will build some underpass or overpass for trains to use.
Houston police said the suspects were detained for stealing the generator that was being used to run a railroad safety crossing.
Two years ago, a train blocked paramedics from first helping 11-week-old K'Twon Franklin, who died two days later. Now, changes are on the way, and for one family, it couldn't come soon enough.
DPS believes the driver ignored the railroad crossing arms and continued to drive past the tracks when a train hit her SUV. The driver and passenger did not survive the crash.
Since the early 2000s, track infrastructure has improved with better technology to keep tracks in working shape. The cars, on the other hand, need work.
Cops believe the man, who was reported missing, was breaking into cars before being shot and left to die on railroad tracks on Tuesday afternoon.
