'Relief' level crossing in Bingham is 'working properly' after faults made it a 'danger'

People in Bingham ‘wouldn’t be surprised if there was a big accident’ following a problem at a level crossing. Recent faults at the crossing on Chapel Lane in the town left cars queuing while the alarm goes off and lights signal - but the barriers remain up at the level crossing.

Residents who witnessed the faults told Nottinghamshire Live it’s a ‘danger’ and ‘not safe’. Richard Woodward says it’s a relief that National Rail went out to the level crossing.

The 62-year-old said: “They were here last night repairing. It’s working properly. It’s not safe doing things like that. The police were here yesterday. It’s a relief because it’s a danger. The lights did come on and the barriers stayed up, then they went off. Hopefully, that’s the end of it.”
