MANNER OF CROSSING RIGHT-OF-WAY; COST (§ 21-363)

After the contract is let and the actual construction is commenced, the
superintendent in charge of construction shall notify the railroad company of
the probable time at which the contractor will be ready to enter upon the
right-of-way of the road and construct the work thereon. It shall be the duty of
the railroad to send a representative to view the ground with the superintendent
of construction, and arrange the exact time at which such work can be most
conveniently done. The work shall be so planned and conducted as to interfere in
the least possible manner with the business of the railroad; and shall be
conducted under the supervision and direction of the representative of the
railroad company. However, all work necessary in the roadbed of the railroad
company, including all temporary and permanent work, shall be promptly done by
the railroad company and paid for from the fund of the drainage project in the
same manner as provided in § 21-359, covering public highways.
