  • WHO: The City of Lake Worth
  • WHAT: Mayor Pam Triolo will be announcing the start of Lake Worth being a Quiet Zone for rail traffic and the safety measures that have been put in place
  • WHEN: May 21, 2018 | 2:00pm
  • WHERE: Lake Worth Commission Chamber, City Hall, 7 North Dixie Hwy, Lake Worth Fl, 33460
  • WHY: The City of Lake Worth has been approved to become a Quiet Zone for Rail Traffic starting May 21, 2018. From this date trains travelling through the City will only use their horn in case of an emergency or to notify workers on the line. This means that trains will approach crossings in silence which increases risk to those travelling near the tracks.

VISUALS:  The new quiet zone signage for rail crossings will be displayed and available to photograph

INTERVIEWS: Mayor Pam Triolo and City Staff will be available to answer media questions.
