1.6: Manage Highway Rail Intersections

This page shows the collection of processes that make up the Highway Rail Intersection (HRI) facility within the Manage Traffic function.

The key points about the facility are as follows:
- Management of the HRI is accomplished by direct interfaces to railroad operations,
- Wayside equipment interface provides real-time information about approaching trains,
- Receives traffic surveillance data from sensors
- Provides real-time crossing status
- Controls devices at the grade crossing and nearby intersections by passing device control requests
- Provides grade crossing status and information to detect and manage incidents around grade crossings.
- Reports incident information that may be important to trains and grade crossing operation

There are five processes in this collection, all of which are collections themselves:

1) Manage HRI Traffic Volume (1.6.1)
2) Interact with Rail Operations (1.6.2)
3) Manage HRI Rail Traffic (1.6.3)
4) Interact with Traffic Management (1.6.4)
5) Monitor HRI Status (1.6.5)
