E8-16140 Railroad Workplace Safety; Adjacent-Track On-Track Safety for Roadway Workers Proposed Rule FRA proposes to amend its regulations on railroad workplace safety to reduce further the risk of serious injury or death to roadway workers. In particular, FRA proposes to require that railroads adopt specified on-track safety procedures to protect certain roadway work groups from the movement of trains or other on-track equipment on "adjacent track." FRA proposes to define "adjacent track" as "any controlled track whose track center is 19 feet or less from the track center of the occupied track." These on-track safety procedures would be required for each adjacent track when a roadway work group with at least one of the roadway workers on the ground, is engaged in a common task with an on-track roadway maintenance machine or coupled equipment on an occupied track. FRA also proposes to require that railroads, contractors to railroads, and roadway workers comply with these procedures. 2008-07-17 2008 7 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2008/07/17/E8-16140/railroad-workplace-safety-adjacent-track-on-track-safety-for-roadway-workers https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2008-07-17/pdf/E8-16140.pdf Transportation Department; Federal Railroad Administration 492,185 FRA proposes to amend its regulations on railroad workplace safety to reduce further the risk of serious injury or death to roadway workers.
