The railway crossing is very dangerous because the track intersects with the road there. Thus, The laws were designed for safety of the railway crossing and they are classified as to the acts for the road and the railroad. For safety of the railway crossing, there are 'Road/Railroad Crossing Improvement Promotion Act', 'Enforcement Decree of Road/Railroad Crossing Improvement Promotion Act', 'Rules on Construction of Railroad', 'Rules on Safety Standards of Railroad Installations', and 'Enforcement Ordinance of Cable way/Railway Track Act' in the acts for the railroad and there are 'Road Traffic Act', 'Enforcement Ordinance of The Road Traffic Act', 'Ruled on Structure and Facility Standards of The Road', 'Rules on Structure And Facility Standards Of The Rural Road' and 'Rules on Structure and Facility Standards of The Installations for Bicycle' in the acts for the road. Both the acts for the road and the railroad have standards for the structure of the railway crossing. However, they have different standards. Besides, they don't have standards for new facilities which were recently installed for safety of the railway crossing. Therefore, we suggest new standards for safety of the railway crossing.

Around two years have passed since the beginning of aptitude test required by 2006 Rail Safety Act. At this point, it is necessary to evaluate the validity of the aptitude test. Through this study, the structural system for all the tests would be overviewed, which will show the correlation among each tests or its importance. Also, although it is rough, reliability and validity of the tests would be overviewed by their retest and education materials. This would contribute, in the future, to setting up for the standard of upgrading or integrating the tests.

고속철도 운행, 도시철도 고밀도화, 무인자동운전의 경량전철 등 신교통시스템 도입 등 급변하는 철도환경에 따른 철도안전의 위험요인이 증가하고 있다. 국내 철도사고 사망자는 설비개량, 노후차량교체, 건널목입체화로 감소하고 있으나 10년을 주기로 대형참사가 발생하고 있으며, 철도관련 종사자의 안전의식이 낮은 수준이다. 이러한 대형참사의 발생을 방지하기 위하여 철도안전법이 제정되고 이의 효율적인 시행기반을 구축하기 위하여 철도시설안전체계 구축 및 기술분야별 안전기준을 개발하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 철도종합기술개발사업의 철도사고 위험요인분석(PHA : Preliminary Hazard Analysis)을 토대로 관계있는 위험원을 선정하였다. 또한 위험원에 의한 사고발생을 예방하기 위한 철도신호분야의 안전기준항목을 기술하였다.

This paper defines the Safety Management System (SMS) based on the rail safety act and surveys the status of the English rail SMS and International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) SMS and OHSAS18001 SMS. Through the analysis of the domestic rail operators' safety management regulations and the results of the universal rail safety audit, the status and problems of domestic rail operators' SMS are investigated and the improvement scheme are derived. First, to establish the continual improvement system for SMS, the instruction which describe the detailed continual improvement method for each steps of SMS including management review by CEO shall be established. Second, to settle the risk management based SMS, converting the rail operators mind and establishing the supply system of safety risk operating model and basic data for the risk analysis and safety evaluation and including the precise requirement for the risk management in the related instruction should be conducted.

철도 운전사고의 대부분을 차지하는 철도건널목에 대한 기존의 사고예측식은 국외의 경우 Peabody Dimmick Formula, New Hampshire Index, National Cooperative Highway Research Program(NCHRP) report 50, U.S. Department of Transportation(DOT) 사고예측식 등을 이용하고 있었으며, 국내의 경우, U.S. DOT 사고예측식의 입력변수를 다변량 분석법을 이용하여 국내에 맞게 조정한 사고예측식을 이용하고 있다. 그러나 위에서 제시한 철도건널목 사고예측식은 철도건널목에서 발생하는 사고를 단순히 철도통행량, 도로통행량, 선로수, 도로수 등의 요인에 국한하여 분석한 것이고, 사고예측식 자체가 철도건널목에만 국한된다는 맹점을 안고 있어서 철도건널목장치라든지 철도건널목을 이용하는 사람들의 성향 등, 여러 인자를 고려한 철도건널목에서의 안전성분석 및 대책을 제시할 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 철도건널목장치를 포함하여 다른 시스템에도 범용적으로 적용할 수 있고, 제한된 변수에만 국한하지 않아 여러 사항을 고려할 수 있는 안전성분석 절차를 제시하였는데 이 안전성 분석 절차를 철도건널목에 적용함으로써 시스템의 위험요인을 분석하고, 이에 대한 원인 및 결과, 손실을 도출한 후 대책을 제시할 수 있었다.

This study propose a model for railway safety evaluation with which the safety of whole railway system can be evaluated. The evaluation model is to generate a safety index which quantitatively represent the degree of railway safety. Safety index is proposed a function of three indexes; an accident index, safety management index, and safety culture index. This paper describes the first result from the study on the safety target which will be a key starting point toward the development of safety evaluation model. It is recommended that the safety target be composed of several sub-targets that are apportioned to constituent components. It is coneluded that the classification of safety target influence on deciding components or attributes that constitute each sub-indexes; an accident index, safety management index, and safety culture index.

철도건널목은 철도와 도로법에서 정한 도로(사도를 포함)가 평면으로 교차하는 곳을 건널목이라 하며, 정거장 구내에서 직원 또는 여객의 통행과 화물의 운반만을 목적으로 사용되는 구내통로는 제외한다. 우리나라의 철도는 1899년 9월 18일 경인선(노량진∼제물포)의 개통을 시작으로 경제성장에 커짐에 따라 여객과 화물수송의 급격한 증가를 가져오고 있으며, 열차운행 빈도도 급속하게 늘어나고 있다.(중략)
