Development and demonstration of an anti-bird strike tubular screen for High Speed Rail lines (LIFE IMPACTO CERO)
Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2018,
Background
The problem of bird collisions on high speed lines (HSL) has increased significantly in recent years. Along with hazards related to rail infrastructures, high speed trains also pose an additional risk to birds.
Both common and more sensitive species are at risk, and as a result of bird collisions on HSL, the populations of certain bird species ...
