(1)Where buildings or walls contain doors or gates which open on to railway track, a barrier about 3 feet 6 inches high shall be fixed parallel to and about 2 feet away from the building or wall outside the opening and extending several feet beyond it at either end, so that a person passing out may become aware of an approaching train when his pace is checked at the barrier.If the traffic on the nearest track is all in one direction, the barrier shall be in the form of an L with the end of the short leg abutting on to the wall and the other end opening towards an approaching train.(2)If the distance between wall and track cannot be made to accommodate such a barrier, the barrier or a turngate shall be placed at the inside of the opening.(3)Where a footway passes close to a building or other obstruction as it approaches a railway track, a barrier shall be fixed at the corner of the building projecting several feet from it in a direction parallel to the track, so that person approaching the track is compelled to move away from the building and thus obtain timely sight of a train approaching behind it. Where the footway is too narrow to permit of this a turngate shall be installed.
