Re: Route 58 Collision Monday

Would the installation of boom gates at the Elliot Ave/ tram level crossing
prevent future collisions? The Glenelg tramway uses them as does our Port
Melbourne lightrail just before the terminus.

A few decades ago the traffic lights were installed when the long
time practice of cars giving way to crossing trams broke down. Boom gates
would seem to be the next logical step. Any thoughts?
