    Report summary

    On 6 June 2015, Steven Robert Murphy jumped from a footbridge at Liss railway station into the path of an oncoming train and died instantaneously. The principal concern was that South West Trains had not positively responded to a British Transport Police report recommending measures to reduce the risk of people climbing over the footbridge parapet.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to provide a positive response to safety reports concerning the passage footbridge

    Wider context from the report

    “At Mr Murphy's Inquest, I was told in evidence that following his death the British Transport Police submitted to South West Trains a Post Fatality Site Survey Report highlighting appropriate measures for the passage footbridge at Liss Station to reduce the risk of persons climbing over the parapet of the footbridge as Mr Murphy had done. I was also told that the British Transport Police had received no positive response regarding its report from South West Trains. I attach a copy of the British Transport Police report to this report. I believe that South West Trains should consider taking the measures set out in the British Transport Police report to prevent future deaths in similar circumstances to Mr Murphy's death. ”
