  1. Increasing of level crossing safety

  2. Protecting modes of level crossings on MÁV network

  3. Road traffic safety of Hungary

  4. Accidents in level crossings on MÁV network caused by bumping of train – road vehicles

  5. Results of KTI research From presentation of Mrs. Cseffalvay M and Mr. Gábor M

  6. 1) Project for modernization of level crossing equipment • Installation of halfbarriers to existing warning lights

  7. 1) Project for modernization of level crossing equipment Replacement of existing bulboptics by LEDoptics

  8. 1) Project for modernization of level crossing equipment • Installation of new level crossing protecting systems (warning lights, halfbarriers)

  9. Time schedule: As first step, installations and modifications are foreseen at 44 sites. (These installations and modifications has been prepared in 2009, but this project was cancelled because of lack of financial resources.) Public procurement documentation is available. (Tender is launched on 23. 01. 2013.)

  10. To be realized in current tender Installation of LED optics at 5 level crossings Installation of half barriers at 4 level crossings Installation of half barriers and LED optics at 31 level crossings Installation of new level crossing protecting systems at 4 level crossings

  11. Further steps Two additional tenders will be prepared for the modernization of further 128 sites. (These sites are appointed by MÁV, National Transport Authority and National Accident Prevention Agency.)

  12. 2) Project for modernization of train detection Problem: In some cases train detection with track circuit does not operate properly. The causes are: • ballast impedance is getting worse, • pollution of rail head • leaves on the rail head • rust (in case of low density train traffic) • throw-off the freight on the rail

  13. Aim of the project Modernization works will be carried out on 53 sites The reliability of train detection must be increased mostly with the use of axle counter systems

  14. Time schedule As first stage the tender for designing will be announced. The winner must design the new preliminary plan, the required cabling works and at some marked LCs the circuit diagrams, and the tender documentation must be put together. The announcement for the design tender is expected in March 2013. In the second stage the tender for construction works will be started based on the documents created in the design tender.

  15. 3)Project for installation of cameras for supervision of level crossing area • Installation of cameras for supervision of level crossing area in order to force the drivers to observe the rules • Pictures of vehicles breaking the barriers are taken and stored in special format for police evaluation purposes • Planned for 99 level crossings

  16. Camera field of view

  17. Time schedule • The public procurement process includes the installation of the camera systems and the required modifications of the level crossing equipments • Contract is expected to be signed in the first half of 2013
