St. Louis County Traffic Field Equipment
Status
Existing
Description
These devices are typically located along the roadside and are controlled by operators in the TOC which aids them in monitoring and managing traffic conditions. The field equipment that aids operators in performing their functions are: highway Advisory Radio (HAR), vehicle detectors,Vehicle Speed Sensors etc

| Roadway Standard Rail Crossing | 'Roadway Standard Rail Crossing' manages highway traffic at highway–rail intersections (HRIs) where operational requirements do not dictate advanced features (e.g., where rail operational speeds are less than 80 miles per hour). Either passive (e.g., the crossbuck sign) or active warning systems (e.g., flashing lights and gates) are supported depending on the specific requirements for each intersection. These traditional HRI warning systems may also be augmented with other standard traffic management devices. The warning systems are activated on notification of an approaching train by interfaced wayside equipment. The equipment at the HRI may also be interconnected with adjacent signalized intersections so that local control can be adapted to highway–rail intersection activities. Health monitoring of the HRI equipment and interfaces is performed; detected abnormalities are reported through interfaces to the wayside interface equipment and the Traffic Management Center. | False |
