Maximum Safety at Level Crossings with Class 1 Danger Sign
The road danger sign "Level Crossing with Barriers" (Fig. II.8) is a fundamental element for road safety, designed to warn motorists of the presence of an intersection between road and railway line protected by barriers or semi-barriers. Made in compliance with the Highway Code, this sign guarantees maximum visibility and durability in all conditions.
Technical Features and Regulatory Compliance
This warning sign comes with an equilateral triangular shape, with the vertex facing upwards and a side of 90 cm, ideal for clear perception from a distance. It is made of sturdy galvanized iron sheet with a thickness of 10/10 mm (boxed), a material that ensures resistance to atmospheric agents and a long service life. The surface is coated with a Class 1 (RA1) reflective film, which is essential for standard reflectivity suitable for ordinary traffic, ensuring optimal visibility even in low light conditions.
The sign features a reflective white background, a bright red border and a black pictogram symbolising a barrier lowered on rails, making it instantly recognisable. It is designed for easy fixing on a pole, using rear channels or special brackets, as required by current regulations.
Optimal Installation for Maximum Visibility
To ensure its effectiveness, the "Level Crossing with Barriers" sign must be installed in accordance with precise instructions. The minimum height of the lower edge from the ground is 150 cm, while the recommended sighting distance is about 150 meters, allowing motorists adequate warning. This sign complies with Legislative Decree 285/1992 (Highway Code), Presidential Decree 495/1992 (Implementing Regulation, Art. 87 – Figure II.8) and UNI EN 12899-1, which define the technical standards for permanent vertical signs.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is the difference between barrier-free and barrier-free level crossing signs?
The "Level Crossing with Barriers" sign (Fig. II.8) indicates the presence of physical protection (barriers or semi-barriers) that prevents transit when the train is arriving. The "Barrier-Free Level Crossing" sign, on the other hand, warns of an unprotected intersection, requiring greater caution from the driver.
Where should this type of signal be installed?
The signal is used to warn of a level crossing with barriers or semi-barriers on urban and suburban roads, approaching intersections between road and railway line. It is also used on construction sites where there is a temporary railway crossing, ensuring the safety of operators and road users.
