Several accident incidents have occurred at the scene. One just a week before the December 13 event last year. Trains are allowed to travel 180 kilometers per hour on the route. The view is also obscured by train drivers coming from the south.

The level crossing is defined as unprotected according to the Swedish Transport Administration and will probably remain until 2035, when the Ostlänk should be completed. When the plane crossing was built, booms were no requirement, but would be today, according to the report. Currently there are audio and light signals as well as a so-called walking trap.

No personal injury occurred as a result of the incident. However, the margins were very small and the event could have ended more seriously, the authority writes in the report.
