The city of Anoka is seeking $57 million to improve safety at a railroad crossing. This crossing, located at Highway 47 and Ferry Street, is considered particularly hazardous. It handles a significant amount of traffic, with 20,000 cars passing through daily.

The crossing has been a concern for decades and has been described in city documents as one of the worst in the state. A recent incident has brought new attention to the issue. Further details about the crossing and the city's plans are available from local news sources.
