Signal and Interlocking Audit App turns signal and interlocking audits into a scored, repeatable programme. Auditors score each asset against weighted criteria, attach photo evidence, and track corrective actions to verified closure across every site. Managers compare signal and interlocking audit scores across sites and track every corrective action to closure.
Signal and Interlocking Audit App runs a scored signal and interlocking audit covering signal aspects, lamps, and visibility, point machines, detection, and locking, interlocking logic and route setting, track circuits and axle counters, and level crossing controls and interfaces, with a photo and a sign-off required on each point. Without a system, signal and interlocking findings live on paper and in chat. A signal and interlocking fault such as wrong-side signal or aspect faults slips through. An audit then means rebuilding signal and interlocking evidence from folders.
Signal and Interlocking Audit App keeps one record per signal and interlocking and per site, with photo evidence and a named sign-off. Each signal and interlocking finding is tracked to verified closure. Signalling maintenance engineers see signal and interlocking completion and overdue actions across the transport, logistics & warehousing portfolio. Every signal and interlocking record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.
What to Include in a Signal and Interlocking Audit App?
A comprehensive signal and interlocking audit covers the key areas that affect operations and compliance. Audit signal and interlocking systems with structured scoring, photo evidence, and corrective action tracking. Your audit should include sections for signal aspects, lamps, and visibility; point machines, detection, and locking; and interlocking logic and route setting, evidence capture, pass/fail or scoring criteria, corrective action assignment, and sign-off, so that nothing is missed and every audit finding is traceable.
How to Use Signal and Interlocking Audit App
A scored audit only helps if every auditor scores the same way. Follow these steps to run a signal and interlocking audit:
Open the signal and interlocking audit template, which carries weighted criteria and a scoring scheme.
Score each asset against the criteria and attach photo evidence for any non-conformance.
Let the app calculate the section and overall signal and interlocking score so the site is comparable to others.
Raise a corrective action for each failed signal and interlocking criterion with an owner and due date.
Sign off the signal and interlocking audit. The scorecard and branded report generate automatically.
What Does a Signal and Interlocking Audit Cover?
A signal and interlocking audit scores condition against railway signalling standards and RSSB rail industry standards, checking signal aspects, lamps, and visibility, point machines, detection, and locking, interlocking logic and route setting, track circuits and axle counters, level crossing controls and interfaces, and power, cabling, and equipment rooms. Each signal and interlocking finding is logged with a photo, a severity, and the failing point. So the signal and interlocking audit becomes a traceable evidence pack, not an ageing spreadsheet.

What Signal and Interlocking Teams Fix When Audits Are Scored the Same Way Everywhere
Signal and Interlocking work breaks down the moment evidence leaves the form. These are the problems Signal and Interlocking Audit App is built to remove, and what the team gets back when it does.
Every auditor scores the signal and interlocking audit differently, so sites cannot be compared
One auditor is strict, another is lenient, and a third skips sections. The signal and interlocking audit scores come back, but leadership cannot tell whether a low score means a weak site or a tough auditor.
Problem
Signal and Interlocking scoring depends on which auditor showed up
Asset sections get skipped with no record
Signal and Interlocking scores are not comparable across sites
Solution
Weighted signal and interlocking criteria baked into the audit template
Mandatory asset sections, so nothing is skipped
Comparable signal and interlocking scores that roll up across the estate
Assigned contractor signs off the asset fix, and nobody checks it
A defect on the asset is handed to assigned contractor. A week later the asset defect is marked closed. Whether the asset work was done well, badly, or at all, nobody has verified.
Problem
Assigned contractor marks work closed with no verification
Poor asset fixes are only found at the next inspection
No record of which signal and interlocking partners actually perform
Solution
Closure photo required before any signal and interlocking action is signed off
Assigned contractor performance scored on closure speed and re-opens
Re-opened asset actions linked back to the original finding
The signal and interlocking report is still being assembled by hand
Someone spends Friday afternoon collecting signal and interlocking photos, notes, and audit records into a report. By the time leadership reads it, the signal and interlocking data is days old and the next problem is already live.
Problem
Signal and Interlocking reports compiled by hand from photos and notes
Leadership reads signal and interlocking data that is already days old
Every signal and interlocking report looks slightly different
Solution
Branded signal and interlocking reports generate automatically per site and period
Scheduled signal and interlocking reports reach managers before the morning meeting
One consistent signal and interlocking report format across the estate
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Signal and Interlocking Audit App check on a signal and interlocking audit?
Signal and Interlocking Audit App runs a scored signal and interlocking audit against railway signalling standards and RSSB rail industry standards, checking signal aspects, lamps, and visibility, point machines, detection, and locking, interlocking logic and route setting, track circuits and axle counters, and level crossing controls and interfaces. Each finding is logged with a photo, a severity, and the point it fails, then routed to an owner with a deadline. It stays open until a reviewer verifies the fix, so the audit becomes a traceable evidence pack for signalling maintenance engineers rather than an ageing spreadsheet. Because scoring is built into the template, two sites assessed by two people produce numbers you can compare fairly.
Which signal and interlocking defects matter most, and what happens if they are missed?
The audit targets the signal and interlocking failures that matter most: wrong-side signal or aspect faults, point detection or locking failures, track circuit or axle counter faults, and interlocking or route-setting errors. Left unchecked, a fault such as wrong-side signal or aspect faults can mean downtime, a safety incident, or a failed audit, so every finding becomes an owned task with a deadline. It stays open until photo proof of the repair is reviewed, and repeat problems are flagged so signalling maintenance engineers fix the cause rather than the symptom. Prioritising by severity means the most serious issues are handled first, not whichever was reported loudest.
Which standards does Signal and Interlocking Audit App support for signal and interlocking work?
Signal and Interlocking Audit App keeps signal and interlocking checks aligned to railway signalling standards and RSSB rail industry standards. The photos and readings each standard expects are required fields, so an incomplete check cannot be closed and a gap is caught before an assessor finds it. When a review is due, signalling maintenance engineers pull the records for the site in scope with one search instead of rebuilding them from folders. Retention and history stay searchable, so proof remains defensible at any point, not only on the day of an audit.
Can teams run signal and interlocking checks offline and across multiple sites?
Yes. Signal and Interlocking Audit App is offline-first: teams complete signal and interlocking checks on iOS or Android with no signal, capturing photos and the evidence each check requires in the field. Each record syncs automatically when the connection returns, with its timestamp intact, and the same template runs on every site. So signalling maintenance engineers get a live view of what is complete, overdue, or failing per location, and a weak connection in a remote or low-signal area never costs a round or loses a photo.
What evidence proves a signal and interlocking audit was completed?
Every completed signal and interlocking audit carries signal aspect photo, point machine photo, and test record, a GPS location, a timestamp, and a named sign-off. Because the evidence is captured during the round rather than typed up afterwards, signalling maintenance engineers can show exactly what was checked, when, and by whom. When an assessor or client asks, the record exports in seconds as a branded PDF or a searchable history, so proof never depends on someone remembering where a photo was saved or which folder holds last quarter's records.
