It looks like it's being done by the state and it has the letters ds for dig safe. They got lines marking the distant the crossing will be worked on.

There are two railworks trucks on the first crossing in twin mountain. Right now they look like they are measuring the crossing. Also yesterday I saw a NHDOT hy rail truck on the second crossing (near the fish hatchery) and he was only checking the crossing out.
