Every life lost on the rail network is a tragedy.
In the past 12 months, there were 263 near misses involving a pedestrian or cyclist across Adelaide’s metropolitan rail network.
That’s more than 5 near misses every week.
Tragically, there have been five rail fatalities in South Australia in 2023.
The impact of these incidents on family, friends, community, rail staff, first responders and witnesses is profound.
Are you an accident waiting to happen?
Are you careless? Not paying attention? Could you be a near miss or worse?
