The present invention concerns a system and a method for automatically setting up a zone of protection around a rail vehicle in evacuation - hereafter RVE (100) - at standstill on a track (102) of a rail network, the method comprising: - receiving a message reporting a RVE (100) and determining the position of a RVE (100) on a track section of the rail network; - determining a triggering alarm zone - hereafter TAZ (TAZ 1 - TAZ 6) for the RVE (100) and one or several Run Authorization Zone - hereafter RAUZ (RAUZ 1 - RAUZ 6) for said TAZ, wherein the TAZ is a zone of the rail network defined for a set of positions of the rail network wherein a rail vehicle might be in evacuation, and for each TAZ, at least one RAUZ is defined, wherein each RAUZ is a zone of the rail network characterized by a binary status: either restrictive or unrestrictive; - setting the status of each previously determined RAUZ to restrictive, and sending each RAUZ restrictive status to an interlocking managing route movement for the track section wherein the RVE (100) is located; - setting physical signaling to restrictive for preventing movement of rail vehicles through the RAUZ.
