RAILWAY INDUSTRY APPEARANCE BEFORE SENATE COMMITTEE ON TRANSPORT AND COMMUNICATIONS - BILL S-4
The RAC supports Bill S-4. However, it submits that it could have gone further in a number of key areas. The main area of concern is the ever increasing proximity between railway operations and everyday life in communities across the country. Proximity issues should have been addressed in the Bill. The second area requiring modifications to the Bill is the limitation of the number of new crossings.

Submission by the RAC on Bill S-4
The bill proposing amendments to the Railway Safety Act, Bill – C-33, was debated before the relevant House of Commons transportation committee, earlier in the year, but died on the House agenda when the Federal election was called. The industry brought forth recommendations on a few issues, but they were not accepted at that time.
