Railway experts met in Brno to discuss the causes of signal passed at danger incidents, prevention measures and new tools aimed at improving railway operational safety.
On 27 May 2026, the Transport Research Centre (CDV) hosted the expert workshop Signal Passed at Danger – Current Issues in Brno, continuing its long-term research focused on unauthorised train movements and railway safety.
The event brought together representatives of public authorities, infrastructure managers, railway operators, professional associations and researchers.
