What are the requirements for interface agreements between rail infrastructure managers and roads authorities?
The Rail Safety Act 2008 provides for new obligations on rail infrastructure managers and roads authorities to seek to enter into interface agreements to jointly manage risks arising from rail or road crossings – that is, level crossings, road over rail bridges and rail over road bridges. This obligation extends the previous obligation on railway operators to enter into interface agreements for managing risks to safety with other railway operators. These requirements will assist rail infrastructure managers to manage risks to safety posed by rail or road crossings.
