A health and safety investigator says Carlos Correa Palacio lost his life in 'circumstances which could have been avoided'.

A tram company has been fined £240,000 after a pedestrian was killed at a crossing.

Edinburgh Trams Limited admitted a breach of health and safety legislation during a hearing at Edinburgh Sheriff Court and was fined £240,000, the Crown Office said. Approximately 18 metres from the crossing the driver applied the emergency brake which also set off the tram warning horn.Prosecutors said there had been no assessment of a foreseeable risk to pedestrians at the Saughton Mains crossing from an approaching tram prior to the incident, despite a near miss in November 2016.
