This is a significant reason why subways exist even though tunneling is significantly more expensive than just clearing and laying rail tracks.

Same-level railways crossings are increasingly rare in Netherland. It's safer and less disruptive to have trains elevated a level above the car traffic. Tunnels are only useful when they have to go through extreme dense areas where there's no room for rails above ground, like in city centers.
