This crossing is very rare as it's a pedestrian only request level crossing. Previously a normal road level crossing, it became pedestrianised after the construction of the high speed line (HS1) in 2006 which split the road. This level crossing is operated on request. Pedestrians must push the button on the 'push button unit' and wait for a signalman to raise the barriers if there is no train due to pass. The level crossing will lower after one minute or when the signalman decides to lower it.
At the time of filming, the crossing recently had new LED warning lights (wigwags) installed to replace the old halogen lights it previously had. However, within two months of filming this video, the crossing was permanently closed and fenced off. After a few years, even as of a few months of this videos publishing date, the equipment remains standing at this crossing.
Thanks For Watching!
