Abstract

Industrial and organisational psychology (incl. human factors) Rail safety Road safety Rail level crossings Pedestrians Cyclists Risk Non-compliant behaviour
Collisions at rail level crossings remain a pressing concern, with the influences on user behaviour a critical area of research. This paper reports the findings of an observational study of pedestrian and cyclist non-compliant behaviours at 10 rail level crossing sites in Australia. The findings illustrate the diversity in crossing designs and how these differences may influence behaviour. General recommendations are provided, alongside the need to consider context-specific risk controls.
