The disclosed solution generally relates to a switch point roller assembly. The switch point roller assembly is configured to be operatively connected to a switch point within a railway switch. The switch point roller assembly comprises a spring, a bolt assembly, a roller assembly, a housing assembly, and a base plate. The base plate may be secured such that the roller assembly is in substantial contact with a railway plate during movement of the switch point—such that the operation of the switch point is improved. As such, the switch point is more resilient to wear thus leading to decreased maintenance costs and increased safety for personnel, passengers, and property.
