GERT8000-SP Iss 3

Speeds

Synopsis

Rule Book module GERT8000-SP sets out the requirements for recognising lineside speed signs and the duties of drivers and signallers when dealing with speed restrictions on the line. This module also affects people who are responsible for setting up temporary and emergency speed restrictions. Issue 3 contains amendments previously published in module AM (amendment Nos AM4/09 and AM4/10). There are also new changes which removes the need for the signaller to advise drivers of an ESR even though it has not been published in a special notice.
