Toll Rail intends to review your recommendation through its Technical Committees to evaluate the robustness of the defence you propose and, if potential gaps are found to exist, consider alternative options that will prevent rail vehicles running away when left unattended on the controlled network. It is anticipated this review will be completed by end of June 2005. A target implementation date will be advised when this review has taken place.
