Abstract:

At-grade rail-highway crossings that are blocked by slow-moving or stopped trains increase risks to public safety at both rural and urban locations. For example, emergency responders may be prevented from reaching individuals facing life-threatening health crises, pedestrians or children may attempt to cut through idling trains to complete their crossing, and commercial vehicles may detour onto local streets to reach their destination, endangering citizens and other travelers by using roads not designed to safely convey large, heavy trucks.
