RIS-7016-INS Iss 2

RIS-7016-INS brings together requirements to provide an integrated and consistent set covering station platforms, the interface between platforms, tracks and trains and buffer stops.

References to TSI have been updated to NTSN, additional guidance has been provided on platform width and the ‘danger’ area and clarifications added in other areas. The guidance on platform lighting has been revised and some errors corrected. 

Appropriate requirements from RIS-7700-INS have been incorporated into RIS-7016-INS. The requirements themselves have not changed but some additional guidance has been added. 

These changes also incorporate recommendations from the 12-month reviews of GIRT7020 and RIS-7016-INS, undertaken and approved by INS SC at the meeting in March 2020.

29/11/2023 - INS SC approved 12m recommendation that an amendment and clarification is issued.

Amendment AM001 to this document was published on 31/01/2024. See link below.
