Ufton crossing is just by the end of some loops - I think the accident report considered that the presence of facing points contributed to the severity of the major accident there, and they probably also mean the crossing is more complicated and costly to renew than most. There has also been at least one other fatality there since the major accident. As it is in a rural are with no buildings nearby a bridge is also relatively easy to provide, so this crossing is likely to be one of the more cost-effective ones for replacement.
