Campaign to Eliminate Grade Crossings Seeks Safer Highways
Des Moines reports state and national railroad officials plan legislation to reduce highway fatal accidents at grade crossings. The Iowa railroad commissioner J H Wilson leads the proposal, calling for slower vehicle speeds, warning signs 300 feet from crossings, red lights toward roads, crossing flagmen with a stop disk, striped gates, clear sightlines, and unimpeded passage. He cautions trespasser injuries persist and that broad elimination of crossings will take time and cooperation.
