Simis LC shows how you can also do your bit for the green cause with a level crossing. A special Simis LC software function optimizes activation time – thus reducing barrier closing times by 20 seconds. This is equivalent to a reduction in barrier closing times of approximately 50% at speeds of 120 km/h.

The benefits: shorter waiting times for road traffic and reduced emissions at railroad crossings. Moreover, Simis LC is operated electromechanically and without oil lubrication. This is a definite plus for the natural habitat because – in contrast to traditional hydraulic barrier machines – there are no oil leaks should an accident occur.
