Do road crossings create traffic hazards?
Road crossings do not create traffic hazards when properly designed. An advantage of rail-trails is that they tend to have fewer road and driveway crossings than sidewalks or paths bordering the roads. Where crossings exist, stop signs on the trail and warning signs on the road can prevent problems and help trail users and motorists avoid dangerous situations.
