Noise Barriers
Noise barriers reduce sound pollution from passing trains, particularly in residential or urban areas. Suppliers in this category design and manufacture acoustic barrier systems that improve environmental compliance, reduce community disruption and support the acceptance of both passenger and freight rail operations.
-
Platform Screen Doors
Platform screen doors are safety barriers installed at station platforms to separate passengers from the tracks until a train arrives. Suppliers in this category offer full-height or half-height systems that improve passenger safety, reduce track intrusion and enable climate control within underground and enclosed stations.
