# The Railways (Interoperability) (High-Speed) Regulations 2002, Paragraph 2.1.1: Requirements specific to each subsystem


Safety
Appropriate steps must be taken to prevent access to or undesirable intrusions into installations on lines travelled at high-speed.
Steps must be taken to limit the dangers to which persons are exposed, particularly in stations through which trains pass at high-speed.
Infrastructures to which the public has access must be designed and made in such a way as to limit any human health hazards (stability, fire, access, evacuation, platforms, etc.).
Appropriate provisions must be laid down to take account of the particular safety conditions in very long tunnels.
