H A Richards, G S Bridges

Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

RESEARCH FINDINGS ON SAFETY EFFECTS OF DESIGN AND CONTROL FEATURES OF RAILROAD GRADE CROSSINGS ARE REVIEWED. SIGNIFICANT FINDINGS ARE DISCUSSED AND SUMMARIZED INDICATING WHEN EVIDENCE IS CONCLUSIVE WHEN RESULTS ARE NOT DEFINITIVE OR MORE RESEARCH IS NEEDED. ELEVEN FORMULAS FOR HAZARD RISK AT RAILROAD CROSSINGS ARE PRESENTED. A COMPREHENSIVE BILIOGRAPHY IS INCLUDED FOR THOSE WISHING TO EXPLORE THE SUBJECT IN DEPTH.
