Research Study Title: Evaluation of Automated Highway-Railroad Grade Crossing Enforcement System 16 . Abstract Senate Bill 1512, which was passed into law by the 74th State Legislature in 1995, required the Texas Department of Transportation to install and operate automated highway-railroad grade crossing enforcement systems as a demonstration project. Three sites with gate arms, relatively high traffic and train volumes, and a minimum number of accidents, were selected for the demonstration study. Additionally, a violation study was conducted at 16 additional gated crossings. The purpose of the violation study was to identifY roadway geometric and operational characteristics that influence violations at gated highway-railroad grade crossings. The demonstration project resulted in no statistical differences between the violations during the before period compared to the after period.

PATRICIA LIMMER, BILLYE JOYCE SMITH, AND BOBBY JEAN NOTHNAGEL, RESPONDENTS 4444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444 ON PETITION FOR REVIEW FROM THE COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS 4444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444 Argued November 13, 2007 JUSTICE HECHT delivered the opinion of the Court, in which CHIEF JUSTICE JEFFERSON, JUSTICE WAINWRIGHT, JUSTICE MEDINA, JUSTICE GREEN, JUSTICE JOHNSON, and JUSTICE WILLETT joined. JUSTICE O’NEILL and JUSTICE GUZMAN did not participate in the decision. In this wrongful death action arising out of a truck-train collision, the plaintiffs claim that crossbucks — the familiar black-and-white, X-shaped signs that read “RAILROAD CROSSING”1 — provided inadequate warning for the railroad crossing and that the railroad was negligent in failing to remove a gravel pile and vegetation that restricted drivers’ view of approaching trains. The railroad contends that federal law preempts these claims. When railroad crossing improvements are 1 U.S. DEP’T OF TRANSPORTATION, FEDERAL HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATION, MANUAL ON UNIFORM TRAFFIC CONTROL DEVICES, at Table 2A-4 (2003) (Use of Sign Shapes), available at http://mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov/pdfs/2003r1r2/ mutcd2003r1r2complet.pdf [hereinafter MANUAL]. federally funded, federal regulations specify what warning devices must be used,2 and the United States Supreme Court has held that section 20106 of the Federal Railroad Safety Act of 19703 expressly preempts state tort law actions challenging the adequacy of those devices.4 The trial court concluded that federal regulations do not apply in this case, and the court of appeals affirmed.5 We disagree and accordingly reverse the judgment of the court of appeals and render judgment that the plaintiffs take nothing.

  • The Term Level Crossing (Also Called a Railroad Crossing, Road Through
    CHAPTER 2 LITERATURE SURVEY 2.1 History of Railway & Level Crossing Development Rail services in Sri Lanka were commenced by Britishers in 1864 with the inauguration of the first train to Ambepussa. Thereafter Railway tracks were extended to Kandy and to the central hills mainly to transport tea and other agricultural products for export to the Port of Colombo, on which the country’s economy depended on. From the commencement of the Railways, it was managed by the Government as a service oriented organization. With the expansion of the road network the need for Level Crossings became prominent. The road network was constructed parallel with the rail line and bus halts were located very close to the railway station. In order to facilitate links the level crossings were needed to be constructed in short intervals. According to the current sources, Sri Lanka Railways has a route network of 1449 km. Total track length inclusive of double lines and crossing loops at stations is 1670 km. It has a ruling gradient of 1:44. Rails used are 80 lbs/yd, on flat country, 88 lbs/yd on the entire mainline from Colombo to Badulla. These two sections are now converted to 90A in stages to accommodate higher axle loads and speeds. Around 650 km of track length is with welded rails and altogether 530 km are laid with concrete sleepers. Average life of a rail is 30 years and that of a wooden sleeper is 04 years and that of a concrete sleeper is 35 years. Cost of a 20 m long rail is Rs.
