Read rule 306

Works, crossings and trams: rules 288–307

Prepare for road works, railway crossings and tramways by studying the restrictions and hazards specific to each.

Rule 306

All road users, but particularly cyclists and motorcyclists, should take extra care when driving or riding close to or crossing the tracks, especially if the rails are wet. You should take particular care when crossing the rails at shallow angles, on bends and at junctions. It is safest to cross the tracks directly at right angles. Other road users should be aware that cyclists and motorcyclists may need more space to cross the tracks safely.
