Railway-Highway Crossings

Railway-highway crossings are points where a road intersects with a railway line at the same level, enabling vehicles and pedestrians to cross the tracks. These crossings are equipped with safety features like warning signs, lights, gates, and signals to alert users of approaching trains and prevent accidents. Proper design and adherence to safety protocols are essential to ensure safe crossing for both train operations and road users. These crossings are common in areas where roads and railways intersect without grade separation, and they require careful management to minimize the risk of collisions.
