An arrangement at crossings between a road and a railway. Between the rails and the respective edges of the road structure and between the rails are arranged first and second slabs level at their top surfaces with the top surfaces of the rails and the top surfaces of the road structure. Elongated supporting elements rest on the foundation and are located at the edges of the first slabs which face the road structure. On the supporting element a first edge to which the road structure adjoins with a second edge opposite to the first edge of the supporting element, forming a support for the edges of the first slabs, and a support for the opposite edges of the slabs facing the rail is provided on the end portions of the sleepers outside the rails. The support on the sleepers is provided with surfaces engaging surfaces on the slab for locking the same in a direction perpendicular to the rail, which locking support is provided to permit a pivoting of the slab during vertical movements of the sleepers and said supporting element.
Arrangement at a crossing between a road and a railway, where the road is interrupted at two opposite edges, between which is positioned at least one railroad track, said arrangement comprising a row of sleepers for supporting the rails of the track and arranged substantially perpendicular to the rails, said sleepers resting on a foundation, first slabs being located in the area between the rails and the respective edge of the road, and a second slab positioned between the rails, said slabs having top surfaces substantially level with top surfaces of the rails and top surfaces of the road, said sleepers having top sides provided with two first supporting surfaces with locking means each provided to support and position one of the rails, two second supporting surfaces and locking means, each being integral with said sleepers and positioned on the outside of one of said first supporting surfaces and each in the form of a sector of a cylinder turned upwardly and with its axis extending perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the sleeper, a central supporting surface with locking means integral with said sleeprs and between said first surfaces;
