This report includes the necessary risk assessment to support the chosen option. 1.2 Reason for the risk assessment This risk assessment has been produced in conjunction with the East Sussex Resignalling project which will see the abolition of Polegate Signalbox and the renewal of Polegate MCB Crossing. This document demonstrates the decision making undertaken in determining the practicability of this proposal and the evaluation of the necessary safety measures required at the level crossing; culminating in a single preferred option. This document is derived from and fulfils the guidance criteria stipulated. The signalling renewal works associated with this project, East Sussex re-signalling, is driven by asset condition, safety and obsolescence. The project is also part of the National Operating Strategy (NOS) scheme which will achieve the signalling renewal and the Control Period 4 (CP4) operating strategy objectives through the re- signalling of the East Sussex line.
