Price Barriers On Humanity


Numbers released in August by the various transit commissions across Canada, state that since 2007 there have been 1,235 track level deaths on railway corridors in Canada. 

Experts say these numbers would not be so bad if transit agencies installed platform-edge barriers which are a series of sliding doors barring access to the tracks. They open once the train has stopped. 

The head of the Amalgamated Transit Union of Canada, Paul Thorp said,” Such barriers should be in place nationwide. Any transit agency that is not putting in these barriers due to financial costs needs to stop putting a price on humanity”.
