OVERVIEWOF SAFETY AT RAIL-ROAD CROSSINGS IN POLAND IN2008-2018 [PDF]
Transport Problems, 2020 The intersection of a public road with a railway line in one level, called a rail-road crossing, is a particularly dangerous place due to the traffic flows crossing it.

Near-Miss Event Detection at Railway Level Crossings [PDF]
2014 International Conference on Digital Image Computing: Techniques and Applications (DICTA), 2014 Recent modelling of socio-economic costs by the Australian railway industry in 2010 has estimated the cost of level crossing accidents to exceed AU$116 million annually. To better understand the causal factors of these accidents, a video analytics application is being developed to automatically detect near- miss incidents using forward facing videos ...

Evaluating Safety at Railway Level Crossings with Microsimulation Modeling [PDF]
Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2012 Safety at railway level crossings (RLXs) is a worldwide issue that increasingly attracts the attention of relevant transport authorities, the rail industry, and the general public. The differences in the operation characteristics of varying types of warning devices, together with differences in crossing geometry, traffic, or train characteristics ...

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2019 Abstract A high number of accidents in railway level crossing causes loss of life and material. Furthermore, the losses are also experienced by users of traffic on the highway such as disturbance in the form of delay which can lead to increase the length of travel time where the vehicle will stop, and give impact to the emergency queue ...

Level crossings as bottlenecks
Vojnotehnički Glasnik, 2000 Level crossings represent bottlenecks from the aspect of vehicle capacity as one of basic parameters for traffic flow. From the railway traffic aspect they represent weak points on railway tracks due to rails exposure to the dynamic influence of road ...

On-road driving studies to understand why drivers behave as they do at regional rail level crossings [PDF]
, 2013 Improving safety at rail level crossings is an important part of both road and rail safety strategies. While low in number, crashes between vehicles and trains at level crossings are catastrophic events typically involving multiple fatalities and serious

Study of Drivers’ Behaviour at a Passive Railway Crossing
Promet (Zagreb), 2012 Problem: The number of killed and injured persons in incidents at railway level crossings is generally increasing on the Serbian Railways, particularly at passive crossings. In this paper we researched the direct behaviour of road traffic participants at

Improving Near-Miss Event Detection Rate at Railway Level Crossings [PDF]
, 2015 Even though crashes between trains and road users are rare events at railway level crossings, they are one of the major safety concerns for the Australian railway industry.
