This specification applies to public road level crossings and pedestrian level crossings. It is applicable to the construction of new crossings and the upgrading and maintenance of existing level crossings. This specification does not cover the requirements for passive level crossing protection although some aspects of the active pedestrian crossings will be applicable to both. Passive protection requirements are included in CRN CS 520. This document is to be read in conjunction with CRN Specifications:- - - CRN SD XXX series Signalling Design Principles which defines the operating parameters for level crossings, - CRN SE 038 Manufacture and Assembly of Level Crossing Equipment - CRN SC 021 Construction of Cable Route and Associated Civil Works which defines post foundations, - CRN SC 015 Specification Installation of Trackside Equipment which defines installation requirements for associated works. Level crossings represent a significant safety risk to passengers, train crews, pedestrians and motorists. The design of level crossing and protection equipment utilised, is to be undertaken only after the safety risk and all other factors have been fully assessed and resolved and is to be based on relevant Australian Standards and Codes of Practice and requirements specified in this document. Level crossings are installed to provide a safe track crossing, at grade, for road, pedestrian and stock traffic. Level crossings may also provide access points

  • Prospects for Improving the Conspicuity of Trains at Passive Railway Crossings
    ROAD SAFETY RESEARCH REPORT CR 217 Prospects for improving the conspicuity of trains at passive railway crossings Author Peter Cairney December 2003 ROAD SAFETY RESEARCH REPORT CR 217 Prospects for improving the conspicuity of trains at passive railway crossings by ARRB Transport Research Ltd ii DOCUMENT RETRIEVAL INFORMATION Report No. Date Pages ISBN ISSN CR 217 Nov 2003 50 0642 25505 9 1445-4467 Title Prospects for improving the conspicuity of trains at passive railway crossings Author Peter Cairney; Project Leader Performing Organisation ARRB Transport Research Ltd, 500 Burwood Highway, VERMONT SOUTH VIC 3133 Sponsored by / Available from Australian Transport Safety Bureau Project Officer: Annette Bartlett GPO Box 967 Civic Square ACT 2608 Abstract Collisions at railway crossings are the most serious safety issue faced by the rail system in Australia, although the number of deaths and injuries is small compared to other road safety issues. The purpose of the report is to advise on the need for, the feasibility of, and the potential benefits from further research into train lighting and conspicuity, and its potential to deliver significant reduction in road trauma. In the period 1996-2000, it is estimated that approximately 36 crashes per year occurred at passive crossings throughout Australia. These crashes resulted in an average of four deaths and six serious injuries per year. The average annual cost of collisions at railway level crossings was estimated to be at least $24.8 million for all crossings, including $16.3 million for active crossings and $8.3 million for passive crossings. Since there are fewer locomotives (approximately 2300) than passive crossings (approximately 6000), and since locomotive lighting treatments are likely to cost less than even the low-budget active warning systems currently being trialed, treating locomotives appears to be an attractive option.

  • 05 6A: Evolution of Roundabouts in France and Their New Uses
    Evolution of Roundabouts in France and new uses Bernard GUICHET - Expert carrefours giratoires - CETE de l'OUEST - Ministère de l'Equipement et des Transports - France SUMMARY In 1997, at the third international symposium on "intersections without traffic signal", I had presented state of the art and basic rules of roundabouts in France. Now these rules are in the federal guide of the roundabouts. Which innovations since 1997? 1. Roundabouts and accidents at the dawn of the 21st century In France, the number of roundabout increased from 500 to 25 000 in twenty years. The principal reason is the profit of safety compared to the other types of crossroads. From 1993 to 2003, the number of roundabouts doubled, but the number of accident is steady. Why? 2. The use of roundabouts with trams Gradually, roundabouts replace the other types of intersection on the lines of tram. The principal interest is the priority within circulatory roadway, out of the presence of tram. A management by traffic lights starts when the tram is approaching. The mode of detection and light signal evolved following reports and tests. 3. Roundabouts close to railway level crossings The proximity of a level crossing of train was a negative element to establish a roundabout. However it is built more and more often, at the point to worry the persons in charge for the SNCF. Without dynamic management of the crossroads, how to make sure that at the closing of the gates, no vehicle is stopped on the level crossing and is blocked on the path of a train which arrives at 160 km/h? Roundabout and tram - Nantes 1 ROUNDABOUTS AND ACCIDENTS AT THE DAWN OF THE 21ST CENTURY More roundabouts but less accidents by roundabout Roundabouts strongly marked the European road landscape at the beginning of 21st century.

  • Application of Fail Safe to Level Crossing Technology
    FailSafe Forum Victorian Parliamentary Committee Application of Fail Safe to Level Crossing Technology Phil Sochon Deputy CEO Australasian Railway Association www.ara.net.au Richmond Level Crossing 1884 Level crossing with gates, Cheltenham Terminology ¾ “Fail (to) Safe” – widely use to describe level crossing design and rail technology standards ¾ More accurate to describe the standard as “vital” - a very high standard of redundancy is built-in to optimise safety. ¾ Perfect safety is not realistically feasible although safety with high levels of redundancy is possible, obviously at increased cost. ARA’s view ¾ Train paths at level crossings need protection to a very high standard, a “vital” standard, as per the rest of the network. ¾ No. 1 consideration is to ensure the safe passage of all rolling stock ¾ In RLX environment, this is achieved at – Higher risk level crossings by lights, and booms and lights at “vital” standards – Lower risk crossings with traffic signs (stop and give way) obviously non-vital. ¾ Rail assumes responsibility for installing such infrastructure. ¾ Key issue - how to reduce the risk of collision with vehicles, people and other objects at level crossings. ARA’s view ¾ Problem - Efficacy of the infrastructure in place • what technology should be used and how effective it is, • what is the place of other means of control over road users such as behavioural initiatives, • Why booms and lights are in use at higher risk level crossings when other higher risk road traffic intersections use standard traffic lights (or give way/stop signs at lower risk crossings). ¾ There are two issues that need consideration here: • does the high cost of active crossing traffic controls contribute to reduced “network” safety i.e.
