This process shall be applied to both new and existing level crossings on Network Rail Managed Infrastructure.

This process does not apply to:

 • authorised walking routes that cross the railway unless they are classified as a staff crossing with active warning equipment (such as white lights); and  

 • road rail access points or track access points.

Purpose

This procedure sets out the process requirements that enable Network Rail to manage the safety and convenience of its level crossings and fulfil its legal duties under health & safety legislation.

It provides a robust and consistent risk management and option selection process for new and existing level crossings and helps determine the over-arching safety requirements for them.
