Sample only
The sign is to be 600mm long x 450mm high. It is to be made from
aluminium of at least 2.5mm thickness. The text is to as the above
example. The text shall be black on a retro reflective Class II yellow
background. Use AS 1744 (Standard Alphabets for Road Signs)
Series C Letter Dimensions. The letter sizes used should be of a
similar scale to those above. The letter size used needs to be as
large as possible so that it can be clearly seen.
The phone number for reporting faults to needs to be decided (the
above number is a example only) before the signs can be made.
The phone number must be at the operations control centre for the
line. A answering machine is to be used so that messages can still
be received if the phone is unattended.
The signs are to be installed facing the road traffic. The signs are to
be visible from the Stop point for motor vehicles using the level
crossing in both directions. This requirement may be satisfied by
installing one or more signs on the level crossing hut wall or door.
If the hut is placed in a awkward position then the sign may need to
be installed on a separate post facing the road (ie. facing 90
degrees to the track). In some cases it may be necessary to install
a sign on each side of the level crossing.
