Be on site to check what is actually being done Do not swing jib over the boundary under any conditions - crane positioning and slew limiters will cover thisĦ. Keep any 'carries' away from the railway, to achieve item 1ĥ. Good, properly designed and constructed, working platform for craneĤ. Keep away from the boundary, so nothing can fall onto the railway landģ. They cannot stop you working without resorting to the Law, when they would need to show your method of working is dangerous.ġ. However, if your works are clear of the boundary, don't let them delay your works by saying it will take them 4 weeks to review and comment on your proposals. The correct answer to the original question is, there are no hard and fast rules or special legal requirements, BUT it is sensible to talk to NR about what you propose. BUT - it makes sense to talk with them if you are working in an area where a 'sensible' failure of man or machine could cause the boundary of the railway to be breached, and heed their advice Again, there is no legal requirement for Network Rail to 'approve' your proposed method of working, if your work does not breach the railway boundary. paul.skyme also writes - "I take it from the responses given that all of you who are in control of lifts where ever they are in the country get permission from Network Rail in writing to undertake them. However it is good practice to discuss matters with themĢ. This is a popular misconception - there is no legal requirement to consult with Network Rail, unless you are working on/over their propert. paul.skyme writes - "So it seems that anywhere in the country that you are going to undertake a lift with a crane, from the answers posted here, you MUST contact Network Rail, to see if it is OK?"
