No cables necessary! 😮 This new level crossing system at Thallon in South West Queensland is autonomous, solar powered and wireless. It’s only the second of its kind in Queensland. ☀ Learn more about this innovative new technology here: https://bit.ly/3uUQpm4
What a leap into the future!he absence of cables and the reliance on solar power represent a significant step toward sustainable and innovative infrastructure. Here's to the continued adoption of innovative solutions that make a positive impact on both functionality and sustainability.
Looks like a fantastic solution for protecting crossings in remote areas
There is a power supply there for the light, why does it have to be solar and battrey powered?
Put speed bumps for 40kph, 100m either side and you would have a great Xing
It is the road ahead.
But also no barrier. That's very trusting of people to stop at the signal.
Go over the top, just like Victoria have been doing🐪
Jeremy Turner would love to learn more about this
There are actually 2 others in Queensland that have the same approach using redundant wireless communication and redundant solar power from a different system developer. The future is here. We just need RIMs to embrace the change and give these systems a fair go. From a risk perspective they would have to score lower than a passive stop sign....
