A) It's a tram
And
B) No there isn't, they share the roads with everyone else
I think it's just a street. So it'd be like installing a barrier on the pavement.
That's true, this appears to be a light rail crossing. But then again that's a pretty large station for just light rail so I'm not sure.
Where I live there are generally no gates for light rail but there are for all pedestrian crossings over ordinary train tracks, which honestly just makes me think we probably should be installing more safety measures for light rail.
trams at street level are convenient though
also costs much less than grade separating everything

They share the road w/pedestrians in some countries w/robust rail networks.
