8 What is safety risk?

9

10 System safety Safety means freedom from unacceptable risk of harm 1 System safety refers to the safety of the operational railway, this includes Passengers Railway staff Members of the public System safety covers sudden events but not the ongoing health and safety of the staff Reference 1: EN , and CSM-RA (2009) regulation

11 The Common Safety Method on Risk Evaluation and Assessment is used to assess the safety of the operational railway

12 Common Safety Method on Risk Evaluation and Assessment Requires a proposer the undertake the risk assessment process, identify the hazards, the risks, the associated safety measures and the resulting safety requirements Passengers Workforce Public

13 The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations is used to assess the health & safety in construction

14 Construction (Design and Management) Regulations Requires a designer.. to eliminate, so far as is reasonably practicable, foreseeable risks to the health or safety of any person during: Construction Maintenance Use

15 Design for construction Design for operation CDM CSM-RA Safety of project personnel Safety of Others Occupational Health

16 CDM Hazard Register CSM-RA Hazard Record

17 HS2 System Safety

18 HS2 Safety Goals (from functional response) HS2 Ltd will design, build and operate the Railway to meet or better the performance standard of HS1, to reduce safety risks as low as reasonably practicable in line with best current international practice.

25 Hazard record output from hybrid bill design CIVIL PROTECT RAILWAY ENGINEERING FROM EXTERNAL IMPACTS CIVIL PROTECT RAILWAY ENGINEERING FROM EXTERNAL IMPACTS Road vehicle incursion Road vehicle incursion Adequate barriers/ protection of overbridges and parallel roads Ensure road design is adequate Include requirement for crossings under the railway to be shown designed and built to be fit for purpose and shown to be compliant with standards Include requirement for provision of adequate barriers between adjacent roads and rail to mitigate risk of incursion

26 CSM-RA for specification design Specification design includes developing the technical standards How do we develop a new suite of standards for a new railway?

27 CSM-RA for specification design HS2 is an Interoperable Railway, must comply with the European Technical Specification for Interoperability: Energy Infrastructure Locomotive and Passenger train Safety in Railway Tunnels Persons of Reduced Mobility Control, Command and Signalling Telematics Applications for Passenger/ Freight Operations and Traffic Management These in turn call up a series of standards and processes.

28 CSM-RA for specification design However, many new standards are being developed, approximately 300 were created for civil design. Theses were developed through a Integrated Design Review process (IDR 1 /2/3, IDC). Specific safety related standards were developed

29 Bridge over rail design writing standards In the phase 1 route, there are 154 bridges over the railway. Bridge design standards need to deliver a safe railway, example design issues hazards include: Bridge parapet design Locations of bridge structures/ piers

30 Errant vehicle protection standard Develop errant vehicle protection standard Based on HS1 standard and DfT risk assessment for bridge design Scope differences to HS2 identified Workshops held to identify deltas to HS2 system definition Standard enhanced to an HS2 version delivering an equivalent level of safety

31 Bridge design standard Since the Eschede disaster in 1998, the location of structures near the railway is key Bridge design based on Eurocodes, civil engineering standards etc. but How far should the bridge pier be from the running line? Used UIC 7772-R to build derailment model Quantitative ALARP calculation of increase in derailment consequence vs. additional bridge cost Result informs bridge design standard.

32 An example of risk acceptance Inspection access during operational hours Given hybrid bill walkway location, train characteristics, service frequency etc. Is HS2 able to accept the hazards realised by allowing access to the lineside areas during passenger service operation? Note: This has not been chosen for operation

33 Hazards around lineside access Worker in vicinity of track leading to worker struck by train Object thrown up by passing train Worker subjected to high noise levels Infrastructure worker/ Train Aerodynamic forces on workers Inadequate walking route provision leading to Slips, Trips and Falls (STF) Manual handling of equipment Unauthorised access leading to assault on the operational railway Use of road vehicles leading to road traffic accidents Being on site Getting to site Hazards relevant to lineside access

34 Aerodynamics example A specific identified hazard was the effect of HS2 trains on infrastructure workers. HS2 has chosen to close this hazard by application of a code of practice: The Locomotive and Passenger Train TSI sets a value for the protection of infrastructure workers and passengers from aerodynamic effects. Sets criteria: Worker Type Distance (m) Air Speed (v+2σ) m/s Maintenance workers Platform passengers 3.0 from the nearest track centreline 3.0 from the nearest track train speed kph (but consider actual speed)

35 Aerodynamics

36 Safe Integration

37 Hazard Record Information Flow Diagram Sub-system specific requirements Further Assessment HAZARD RECORD Further Assessment HS2 Contracts System Safety Sub- System Specific Teams HS2 Directorate Technical Review HS2 System Safety Team Review Review and Acceptance Hazard Closure Amendments to the Design

38 Security

39 CSM-RA for specification design In a safety context, Security can be seen as a additional cause to a number of operational hazards. Safety mitigation will work for security threats Cyber security is an important consideration A number of working groups are looking at this and rail systems Physical security is more widely understood
