Require holistic safety and risk assessment for all track or signalling changes
Recommendation
Where a material change to track or signalling or both is proposed, there should be an express consideration of all relevant safety issues by an analysis of the material factors, if necessary by means of a risk assessment. This should be done on a holistic basis at the design concept stage and repeated at defined stages up to and including full implementation (para 7.17).
