Train Noise and Vibrations Reduction Act of 2025

This legislation directs the Comptroller General of the United States to prepare and submit a comprehensive report to Congress within one year of its enactment. The primary purpose of this report is to develop recommendations aimed at reducing train noise and vibrations in residential areas. The report must include detailed estimates of the costs and benefits for each recommended solution. These recommendations are required to cover various aspects, such as modifications to trains, tracks, and maintenance procedures, as well as adjustments to train speed limits. Additionally, the report should explore mitigation measures between tracks and homes, optimal distances, limits on train operations (number of trains, cars, and hours), and considerations for building noise insulation and soil conditions.
