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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "TRB's Transportation Research Record (TRR): Journal of the Transportation Research Board, No. 2458 consists of 14 papers that evaluate the safety of illuminance transition at highway tunnel portals on the basis of visual load; human perceptions of vehicle turning intention; and visual behavior of unfamiliar drivers on horizontal curves. This issue also explores a method for road lighting audits and safety screenings at urban intersections; a drivers' smart assistance system based on radio frequency identification; the impact of design and construction on quality, consistency, and safety of traffic control plans; impact of work zone lighting on driver's detection of objects; evaluation of cost-effectiveness of steady-burn warning lights in work zones. This TRR also analyzes the expected crash reduction benefits and costs of truck-mounted attenuators in work zones; lane bias issues in work zone travel time measurement and reporting; a photometric evaluation of steady-burn warning lights in work zones; human factors issues of accidents at passively controlled rural level crossings; train warning times and gate violations; and a dual microwave radar vehicle detection system at a four-quadrant-gate railroad grade crossing."--TRB Blurb.

Download or read book Warning Time Requirements at Railroad-highway Grade Crossings with Active Traffic Control written by and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research was conducted to assess the effects of warning time on driver behavior and safety at rail-highway grade crossings with active traffic control. Warning time is defined as the time between traffic control device activation and train arrival. As part of the research, detailed driver response data from two crossings with flashing light signals and one with gates and flashing light signals were analyzed. In addition, a laboratory assessment of drivers' warning time expectancies and tolerance levels at active crossings was conducted, and relevant warning time practices in six foreign countries were surveyed. The results of the studies and survey were used to develop suggested guidelines for minimum, maximum, and desirable warning times at grade crossings with active traffic control. A computer simulation model was also developed to predict the effects of excessive warning times on crossing violations and motorist delay.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Public Education and Enforcement Research Study (PEERS) was a collaborative effort between the Federal Railroad Administration, the Illinois Commerce Commission, and local communities in the State of Illinois. The purpose of the project was to promote safety at highway-rail intersections by reducing incidents, injuries, and fatalities through new technologies and methodologies. The role of the John A. Volpe National Transportation Systems Center was to monitor and evaluate highway-rail intersections in Illinois communities using video data collection while the communities conducted education and enforcement campaigns. The data collection and analysis efforts focused on three highway-rail intersections in Arlington Heights, IL. The effectiveness of the programs was determined by counting the number of motorists and pedestrians that violated the crossing warning devices during three project phases. These violations were divided into three types based on highway-user assumed risk. The crossings in Arlington Heights saw an overall reduction in violations from the pre-test to the post-test of 30.7 percent. The largest reduction, 71.4 percent, occurred in the most risky type of violation, type III. Pedestrians most often committed these types of violations. At the crossing with an adjacent commuter rail station, a reduction of 76.3 percent occurred in the most risky pedestrian violations. Overall, highway-user behavior changed for the safer during the study, and pedestrians, especially commuters, were the most affected by the PEERS programs.
