Book excerpt: This Action Plan presents a multi-faceted, multi-modal approach for improving safety at our nation's highway-rail crossings and for the prevention of trespassing on the rights-of-way of our nation's railroads. It is multi-faceted in that it presents enforcement, engineering, education, research, promotional and legislative initiatives addressing crossings of both light and conventional rail rights-of-way by public and private streets and highways. The objectives were to reduce the number of highway-rail crossing accidents and casualties while not impeding, but facilitating, the contribution potential of the highway and rail infrastructure on the nation's economy.

This book was released on 1996 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study defines the information gathering and communication and response needed for safety at highway-rail crossings. It examines technologies for low-cost, high-safety treatments for low volume highway crossings of higher speed (130-200 kph) rail. Crossing closure and consolidation is a necessary first step. Existing train control and crossing safety systems are examined. Intelligent Transportation System technologies are examined for applicability to the information gathering, communicating, and control functions of grade crossing safety. Guidelines are offered for low volume crossings of the high speed rail line in Oregon. A preliminary cost benefit analysis is presented. Above 200kph, crossing closure or grade separation is required. In the range of 130-200 kph, ITS technologies have the potential to enhance crossing safety at much lower cost than grade separation. A global positioning system based positive train control system provides the train location and speed information needed for advanced crossing control. A traffic management center can receive train and crossing information, operate crossing systems, and grant clearance for train or highway users through the crossing. Remote lock gates provide safety at private crossings. Increased traveler information and four quadrant warning gates increase motorist compliance at public crossings. At train speeds above 175 kph, barrier gates protect rail movements. Video monitoring and detection systems provide reliable, redundant information should a vehicle become trapped in a crossing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problem of highway/railway grade crossing safety is complex. Railways, manufacturers and governments in North America have striven to improve the visibility, reliability and credibility of grade crossing hardware in an attempt to protect the human element in this potentially fatal equation. This report presents information collected from interviews and literature reviews in an attempt to identify areas requiring more research. The following were identified as candidates for further study: 1) Active AdvanceWarning Device, Sequential and Standardized Warning Signal (AAWD, SSWS) Implementation Jurisdiction 2) Other options such as straightening the roadalignment could be evaluated and compared with AAWD, SSWS on a cost-effectiveness basis 3) Malfunctioning of grade crossing equipment & the use of a toll-free number for reporting of mechanical failure 4) Driver educationand enforcement 5) Reflectorization of rail rolling stocks 6) Railway reluctance to innovate 7) Grade crossing roughness, and 8) Suicide prevention.
