In response to the RAIB’s latest report - Trevor Sterling, Partner at Moore Blatch solicitors – who represents a number of victims of the Croydon Tram Crash, said:
“We are pleased to see so many agencies collaborating to identify the cause of this fatal crash, and thank RAIB for its latest report. We are however very surprised and concerned at the lack of information that is still unavailable - three months on. It is absolutely vital that investigations lead to concrete answers in relation to the driver’s contribution to the accident, and the actual cause, or it will only create more speculation. Whilst we recognise that a programme of measures to further reinforce safety is being put in place, determining the source is the only way that Transport for London will be able to implement new measures to address the issue and ensure incidents like this never happen again.”
