Railroad crossing safety report, Wädenswil
Wädenswil, Switzerland
Cyclists have repeatedly fallen at the SOB railroad crossing on Seestrasse in Wädenswil. TBF + Partner AG was tasked with analysing the safety of the existing situation and developing improvement measures. Based on monitoring data, video footage and accident statistics from the cantonal police, a sound safety analysis was carried out in accordance with section 10 of VSS standard 40 241. In addition, an on-site inspection was carried out, and a brief report was drawn up to examine the possibility of reducing the speed limit to 30 km/h. Based on all analyses, a plan of measures was drawn up, which forms the basis for the development of measures to be implemented in the short and medium term to improve cycling safety.
