The objective of the conference was to bring together key interest groups to discuss new ways and means to insure increased safety and to achieve optimum efficiency in the use of both highway and railroad facilities. The report contains presentations made by various experts in railroad, highway, and urban affairs. Individual sessions were devoted to urban railroad problems; train-activated rail-highway protection; passive devices at rail-highway crossings; implementation of major crossing protection programs; warrants for safety improvements at crossings; and maintenance of automatic protection devices at grade crossings.
