Basically, the open area (without fence) across both sides of the roads has always been a temptation for most, young & old, to cross over to get to either sides of the road. Without a physical barrier, Folks just like to take the easier & faster way to get across. .................................
nothing beats just walking across for convienient sake. I don't understand why there are even tiles lay down on the central divider that even entice people to walk across though they are suppose to use the overhead LRT bridge. Overshadowing trees that reduce the visibility of these pedestrain crossing at night is another big problem.
It is extremely unsafe and till a physical barrier is setup to deter people from walking/dashing across, many will continue to take chance and assume that such accident will not happen to them.
As a resident, i really hope that the lost of this little girl's life will help to put up a strong justification for the authority to erect a barrier across the roads there. I do not wish to see this fatal accident to become part of national's statistic.
One fatal accident that claimed an innocent live is just too many. I seek your consideration in this matter to do something about it. If the area across Primemart supermarket & kopitiam can have physical barrier across both sides of the road, i do not see the reason why a high traffic & conjested area esp along PG plaza can't have similar deterent setup.

Dear esunny...please write a letter to GOD also, why is childbirth so painful, why is there disasters around the world, why is human made to be smart to invent cars, why are we made to live then die....
Can we blame Obama or The US president for the Economy downturn? can we blame the government for a reactions and behavours of the other Singaporeans?
What if vice versa happen, the LRT was on Fire, there is no space for Fire Engine access for saving/ rescue procedure (refering to the accident area)? Will you write a letter to them on this...
Can Starhub and Singtel make each and every of us happy individually while we are all made differently with different opinions? Can all Nations and countries satisfy us individually? Difinitely not and thats why "Rules. Terms. Conditions" are created non other by Humans themselves
I have kept this for so long and now... I think its time for me to give my opinion. I really respect and appreciate that somebody have invented Forum pages in the net and newspaper, I agree that this is good for us to post some answers and questions but sad to say Forums that are made and complains that are posted are no longer meant for these purpose which also includes long Qs for bank hotlines or companies, what I would like to say is that its just mainly for self individual interest which are selfish.
Have our grandfathers thought us wrongly? What did they miss? Have we forgotten to blame ourselves...Have we forget to be honest? "Don't work hard but work smart"... why are we always cheating? are all waivers that we requested from Telcos, banks and companies are 100% genuine or just a 100% ignorant from users
I do understand that its hard to make a living but hardship is experienced everywhere even a few centuries back eg Jesus or whoever u have read in the book of history.
There is the good, bad and ugly which is the fact of life and I believe that some of us are appointed or born to be leaders, the rich and the bad ones, there is nobody to point fingers at and there is nobody to be blame but ourself and CHANGES starts from ourself.. not others
So before we made comments or blame others... I think we should always look back and reflect ourself.... We are actually the Man in The Mirror...
