Welcome to the Route Drivability Tool
The RDT is an online tool that allows you to assess how a proposed or existing signalling
scheme design impacts on the train driver's workload – or the drivability of a
route.
By taking into account various aspects of human performance in engineering designs
we can build infrastructure that optimises the driver's workload.
This helps us to improve safety, set more realistic journey times, make informed
investment decisions and meet our challenge to increase capacity on Britain’s railway.
