Open publisher page 8 citations

Abstract

In August 2006, the National Railway Level Crossing Behavioural Coordination Group (BCG) was formed as a unique national initiative. Endorsed by the Australian Transport Council (ATC), the group is comprised of senior road and rail government representatives from each state and territory and the Australasian Railway Association. With a focus on level crossing safety, the BCG oversees the development, delivery and evaluation of research and projects that aim to improve road user behaviour by implementing education, awareness, enforcement and technological initiatives. It has achieved significant success in its first two years of existence. This paper explores the following projects carried out by BCG. (a) For the covering entry of this conference, please see ITRD abstract no. E217329.
