Approximately 50% of vehicle/train collisions occur at crossings with active warning devices (gates, lights, bells)

STOP sign and cross bucks at minimum All rail crossings on Vale property in Ontario Operations are equipped with a STOP sign and cross bucks at minimum

An average of 17% did rolling stops. Almost 2% did not stop at all. Close to 3000 vehicles crossed at 3 specific rail crossings over a 36 hour period. An average of 17% did rolling stops. Almost 2% did not stop at all. In June 2011 an audit was done in the smelter complex.

The Transportation Department did something to create an impact, to reduce that risk, aiming for zero harm...

… by creating this video to get the message across.

Always stop to check both ways at rail crossings. Don’t take the risk. Always stop to check both ways at rail crossings. Thank you and have a safe day.
