Street Worker Killed in Accident

by Administrator 16. November 2009 02:45

A street worker has recently been killed in an accident that was on the job.  The accident took place last Friday in Arkansas.  The worker was helping take part in a project on a bridge when a piece of equipment called a grader ran the man over.  The grader struck the worker while the driver of the grader was reversing the machine.

The driver of the machine later stated he believed the other man was standing in another location before the accident took place.  The man was airlifted to hospital shortly following the accident.  The man would later die at the hospital several hours later from his injuries.

Rail Worker Killed in Accident While on Strike

by Administrator 6. November 2009 04:03

A rail worker was killed on the third day of a Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority strike. The worker was walking along a rail that is normally not used by trains when he was struck from behind.

The worker was killed from the injuries sustained in the impact.   The rails had to be shut down following the accident so authorities could conduct an investigation into the worker's death.

The accident caused massive delays because the rail system was shut down.  Further,  many passengers were stranded because normally a transportation authority bus would drop passengers off at their final destination.  However because of the strike,  no buses were running leaving many individuals stranded.
