RIGHT PADDLE REPAIR METHODS FOR IMPROVING TRAFFIC SAFETY AT TRAIN RAILWAY TRACKS

Problems that often occur at level crossings with railroads are the high number of traffic accidents, namely accidents between trains and vehicles, two-wheeled vehicles that fall due to inadequate railroad infrastructure, and the condition of road pavements at level crossings that are not stable. This study is focused on handling pavement damage at railroad crossings, especially at the JPL 67 location, which is located on the East Java Province road, UPT area. Road and Bridge Management (PJJ) Surabaya, namely Jalan Departemen Krian –Mojokerto Regency (link. 153) Km. 30. At the level crossing of JPL 67, two-wheeled motor vehicle accidents often occur. There is a significant difference in elevation between the highway and the railroad, causing damage to the pavement. The problem is tried to be overcome by conducting a study by UPT. PJJ Surabaya. This study aims to obtain the right road handling method according to the character of the load on level crossings, namely dynamic loads on train vibrations. Several road handlings trials have been carried out from January 2022 to June 2022, using several pavement materials. The study found that CTB with a cement composition can make the pavement at level crossings last longer
