I'll add a couple of comments.

Obviously, DPTI are responsible for the operation of the network and rightly seek to reduce the risk of accidents or incidents occurring.

The best way in this case is to totally separate passengers and the local community from the corridor by installing an underpass. My guess would be the cost of an overpass (that complies with modern standards) would be prohibitive.

As previously stated the auto gates are not the panacea as they are easily circumvented and are noisy in terms of thier audible warning which impacts adjacent residences. They also require ongoing maintenance so any upfront capex savings are swallowed up over the years with opex.

I don't deny the local community having their say and input but it needs to be informed.

It appears to me that the underpass is the safest, most cost effective solution.
