ONRSR - Code of Practice - Level Crossing & Train Visibility - Consultation

Throughout 2022-2023 ONRSR directed efforts to facilitate the delivery of important research into train visibility as part of a continuing focus on safety at regional level crossings.

On the back of this research, in June 2023 Infrastructure and Transport Ministers committed to improving level crossing safety across Australia with a particular focus on train illumination and tasked ONRSR with writing a Code of Practice.
