1 RAILROAD PREEMPTION FORMS Mark Johnson, P.E. October 12, 2016

2 The Basic Problem Vehicles stop on tracks Need to interconnect traffic signal with railroad cabinet 2

3 Preemption Process: ROW Transfer 1 st : ROW Transfer 3

4 Preemption Process: Queue Clearance Time 2 nd : Queue Clearance Time (beginning of track clearance green) Design Vehicle 4

5 Preemption Process: Maximum Preemption Time 3 rd : Maximum Preemption Time Separation Time 5

6 Preemption Process: Sufficient Warning Time Check Traffic Light must stay green until gates are horizontal 4 th : Sufficient Warning Time Check (subtract the time the RR will already give to the gates before the train) 6

7 2004 Preemption Form Developed under TTI Research Report (September 2005) Used by numerous other agencies Upgrades needed: Account for left turning vehicles Clear policy on track clearance green Better guidance on pedestrian truncation Automate calculations when possible 7

8 Left Turning Vehicle During ROW Transfer 8

9 Left Turning Vehicle During ROW Transfer 9

10 Left Turning Vehicle During ROW Transfer 10

11 Left Turning Vehicle During ROW Transfer 11

12 Left Turning Vehicle During ROW Transfer You must measure these! 12

13 Left Turning Vehicle During ROW Transfer Preempt Form does these Calculations for you! 13

14 Pedestrian Truncation Intermediate Truncation Provide enough time to cross to middle of farthest lane A X Intermediate B Y Intermediate Y Partial D Pedestrian Conflicts with Track Clearance Vehicles X Partial C Partial Truncation Provide enough time to cross to middle of farthest approach 14

15 Traffic Signal Timings: Form

16 Annual Preemption Inspection (Form 2625) FRA Safety Advisory Agencies perform joint inspections with railroads November 2015 FHWA + February 2016 FRA Memo Confirm RR preemption is highest priority TRF compiled list of locations on state routes Confusion as to settings like track clearance green, phasing Documented cases where preempt cable was disconnected Confusion on the connection between the preemption Form 2304 and how to program controller 16

17 Valhalla, NY 2/3/2015 6:26 p.m. SUV Direction Train Direction 17

18 Valhalla, NY Train After Crash 18

19 Valhalla, NY Mercedes SUV After Crash 19

20 Preemption Inspection Process Process Get all required preempt info from controller Have railroad company provide amount of advanced preemption time Test preempt call from the railroad cabin & verify operation 20

21 Traffic Signal Cabinet & Controller Jumper for Normally Closed Circuit 21

22 Goals of Annual Preemption Inspection Confirm we are receiving the preempt calls from the RR Confirm the controller proceeds thru correct phasing Confirm the controller timings are correct (track clearance green, etc) Keep an accurate inventory of all locations, testing, settings and equipment Train traffic signal technicians 22

23 Preemption Does Not Fix Everything 23

24 Future FSP Emphasis Need 3 components for railroad preempt connection: 1-Gates at the RR crossing 2-Traffic signal at the intersection 3-Conduit/cable connection 24

25 Future FSP Emphasis Does this meet warrant 9 for a traffic signal? 25

26 Future FSP Emphasis If not, can we try an all way stop? 26

27 Future FSP Emphasis If Maybe not, can we try an acceleration all way stop? lane? 27

28 Future FSP Emphasis Does If Maybe Can not, we this can restrict meet we try truck warrant an acceleration routes all way and 9 for stop? hazmat lane? traffic routes? signal? 28

29 Next Steps Preempt Form 2304 Preempt Inspection Form 2625 FSP Emphasis Next Steps Revised form expected fall 2016 TRF to set policy on crossings that were recently updated with advanced preemption Training to be provided via webinar Next Steps Districts to complete by end of 2016 TRF to provide feedback on updating timings, etc Follow inspection annually for each location Next Steps Use crash forms to determine safety upgrades Identify locations requiring traffic signals, gates, or conduit connection Fully fund traffic signal and roadway upgrades under the FSP program Questions Ph: (512)
