New systems in operation at two Mayo train lines
Railroad straight track.
Two level crossings in Mayo have been upgraded with new train detection warning systems.
The first warning system has been installed at Level Crossing XM190 in the townland of Garryredmond, near Claremorris, on the Westport line.
The location of the second warning system is Level Crossing XX059 in the townland of Rathbaun, near Foxford, on the Manulla Junction to Ballina line.
A third train detection warning system has been installed at a level crossing in County Sligo at Level Crossing XS121 in the townland of Ardree, near Ballymote.
The new warning system uses two lights to indicate to pedestrians, cyclists and motorists when it is safe to cross the railway track. Red means ‘Do not cross’ and orange means ‘Cross with caution’.
Starting today, Monday, November 11, the systems will be operational.
