Juridical Analysis of Railway Crossing Management in Magetan Regency

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The management of railway level crossings is an important issue in ensuring traffic safety in the Magetan Regency. This article analyzes the conflict of norms between Law No. 23 of 2007 and Minister of Transportation Regulation No. 94 of 2018 regarding the authority to manage crossings. According to Law No. 23/2007, the responsibility lies with the permit holder, while Minister of Transportation Regulation No. 94/2018 divides the responsibility based on road status. This lack of clarity has the potential to cause responsibility shifting in the implementation in the field. This study uses a normative approach with a legal analysis method to examine norm conflicts and the necessary solutions. The results show that strict local regulations, improved safety infrastructure such as automatic gates and signals, and multi-stakeholder cooperation are needed to overcome the challenges of crossing management. Thus, this article provides recommendations to create more effective and efficient crossing management, while minimizing the risk of accidents in Magetan Regency.
