Level crossings

A level crossing is where a railway line is crossed by a road or right of way without the use of a tunnel or bridge. There are almost 9000 level crossings in Great Britain. Over 7000 are managed by Network Rail. The rest are located on heritage railways, metro systems and industrial railways.

More information about our level crossing strategy, can be found in level crossing topic strategy.
