The condition of the superstructure is described by

    The track quality

    The amount and the severity of speed restrictions (speed decrease over a length)

    Track positions with long lasting problems

    Track geometry is normally measured by track recording cars. They enable the standard deviations to be calculated, which have proved to be useful for describing the track quality. In some cases, also vehicle reactions calculated from the recorded geometry are used to assess track quality.
