    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Hazard of student deaths from the bridge

    Wider context from the report

    “This is the 3rd student death from the bridge this year, it being the 4th student death from the bridge in two years. This is obviously on top of the other deaths from the bridge that have occurred. I appreciate that the bridge is a site of historical interest however, this cluster of student deaths is of particular concern and I considered that I had a duty to formally report this to you. ”
