'It Was a Recipe for this Incident' - GO riders blame construction for crowded platform where woman hit

The GO Transit platform where a woman was struck by an express train on Tuesday has been partially closed for several months due to construction at the station, causing crowding during rush hour.

Toronto police said the 46-year-old woman was walking near the edge of the platform at Long Branch GO Station when she was hit by an express train bypassing the station at around 8:15 a.m. She was rushed to hospital in life-threatening condition. No update on her condition was available Wednesday.

Multiple witnesses said the highspeed train was travelling on the tracks north of the middle platform while passengers waited for the delayed 8:11 a.m. eastbound train to arrive on the south side. They said the woman was hit at the west end of the platform, where it becomes more narrow.
