Status and prospective directions for improving safety of train traffic

Abstract

Train safety is a key element of the stable operation of railway transport, which plays a critical role in ensuring the mobility of the country's population and economy. This is especially relevant for Ukraine, where the share of rail traffic is more than 60% of freight traffic and a significant portion of passenger transportation. In the context of the growing load on the infrastructure, depreciation of fixed assets, and the challenges caused by military operations, the issue of safety has become particularly important.
