Level crossings represent intersections with high risk and cause serious damages and injuries to many thousand of road users and railway passengers. The paper analyzes various alternative systems for level-crossing protection and problems relating to the systems adopted. The aim of the research is the evaluation of road user’s behaviour approaching a level crossing and the influence of the different typologies and characteristics of level crossing. Different phases of closing barrier are simulated using Petri net model.

Abstract
Level crossings represent intersections with high risk and cause serious damages and injuries to many thousand of road users and railway passengers. The paper analyzes various alternative systems for level-crossing protection and problems relating to the systems adopted. The aim of the research is the evaluation of road user’s behaviour approaching a level crossing and the influence of the different typologies and characteristics of level crossing. Different phases of closing barrier are simulated using Petri net model.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
