Safer Level Crossings by improved Road-Rail Infrastructure Design

Kurzfassung

The European project SAFER-LC – Safer level crossing by integrating and optimizing road-rail infrastructure management and design – aims to improve safety in road and rail transport by minimising the risk of LC accidents, focusing on both technical solutions and human processes. The presentation introdcued some exemplary solutions developed in the project and the results obtained in the pilot tests, with a focus on a human-factors perspective on LC safety. An overview of other project activities was also given. All results are collected in the SAFER-LC toolbox (http://toolbox.safer-lc.eu/), which will be accessible from the end of the project on.
