How many of these type of crossings are there would it be feasible to put a bridge type structure up say maybe where the ones with the most recorded near misses are.
There are thousands of them. Cost would be enormous. Many are little used.

Thats why i mentioned the ones with the most near misses obviously it wouldn’t be feasible to do them all.There are thousands of them. Cost would be enormous. Many are little used.
As long as you are behind the barriers, then I see no reason why it would be illegal.Have following this thread, I thought it’s was wise to ask if I am breaking the law. Please see images attached. This is where I normally stand swap which way to look. As a train passes the crossing.

There's some scary ones on the Bedfordshire section of the ECML, too. These are due to be replaced by bridges and tunnels, and it's not before time! You get the usual eejits turn up here whenever that steam loco is passing through.A 'DANGEROUS' level crossing responsible for two deaths in 30 years and a series of 'near misses' is finally set to be closed.
Bailey Lane crossing in Grange has had been open since 1857 to take walkers from the south Cumbria town across the Furness Rail Line onto its famed Edwardian promenade.
It has remained closed temporarily since last year after being declared a danger by Network Rail.
But attempts to have it closed for good were finally successful this week when Cumbria County Councillors agreed lives were at risk if it were to remain a right of way.
Not every train is shown on RTT or other open data feeds. Don't rely on it simply as a means of being able to cross the track safely.
