Haga, Shigeru, Watanabe, Kazuyoshi and Kusukami, Ken (1989): A New Warning System for Protected Level Crossings. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 33rd Annual Meeting 1989. pp. 975-978.

A level crossing on a Japanese Railways line was improved from the human factors point of view. Improved features of the warning system installed there are outlined and effects of the changes are reported. Various good effects of the renewal were found in visibility of the warning lights, appraisal by road users, and video-recorded crossing behavior. It was concluded that the renewal was highly successful and we advised the Japanese Railways to improve other level crossings similarly.

Haga, Shigeru (1988): Prevention of Accidents at Road-Rail Level Crossings Protected with Automatic Barriers. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 32nd Annual Meeting 1988. pp. 933-937.

A recent study on level crossing safety is reported. The study employed three different approaches: a survey of drivers' attitude to the level crossing, quantitative estimation of accident risk from characteristics of level crossings, and improvement of crossing design from the human factors point of view. The results have been utilized by railway companies and police authorities in safety campaigns, driver education, safety investment, and improvement of warning systems for level crossings.
