Overview
Background & policy context:
A great number of the existent level crossings in the 5000 km railway network cannot be replaced by non-level crossings for economic reasons and for maintaining proportionality.
Actually solutions for level crossing protection have been developed which respect the limited financial means and try to optimise the impact on road traffic flow. Basic structures which respect all aspects do not exist. The research wants to fill this gap.
Objectives:
The aim is to develop basic structure and create a standard.
