The project aims to develop a new warning system for front line workers on the operational railway that will be;* Fail safe to ensure workers are automatically warned of approaching trains / loss of safe working environment in real time.* Light weight and quick to set up (plug and play) in the area of work when accessing the railway (not a long way down the track like a treadle).* A local and independent warning system that alerts to the presence of an approaching train, by using mechanical vibration propagating along rails.These three features form the key innovation for the project.The feasibility study will provide a prototype that demonstrate a fail safe warning system that alerts workers when triggered by a train approaching the sensing system and working area.If successful, the subsequent stages of the project will demonstrate full fail safe operation of the warning system ensuring that workers are able to reach positions of safety within acceptably safe timeframes and then return to a working in a safe environment.

该项目旨在为运营铁路的一线工作人员开发一种新的预警系统，该系统将；*故障安全装置，确保工人在火车接近或失去安全工作环境时实时收到自动警告。*重量轻，快速设置（即插即用）在工作区域时，进入铁路（不像踏板一样沿着轨道很长一段路）。*一种局部和独立的警报系统，通过沿轨道传播的机械振动来警告正在接近的火车。这三个特点构成了该项目的关键创新点。可行性研究将提供一个原型，演示故障安全警告系统，当火车接近传感系统和工作区域时，该系统会向工作人员发出警报。如果成功，项目的后续阶段将演示警报系统的完全故障安全操作，确保工人能够在可接受的安全时间范围内到达安全位置，然后返回安全环境中工作。
