Killed at grade separator site

Special Correspondent

TAMBARAM: A 25-year-old worker died when he came under the wheels of an earth-moving equipment at the construction site of the grade separator in Kathipara late on Friday night.

The police said that U. Pankaj Pavan Rao of Santhapur in Maharashtra was supervising a group of workers engaged in levelling mud that was dumped in one of the ramps of the grade separator. He was standing on a wooden beam on top of a heap of mud around 11.30 p.m., when it collapsed. Pankaj slipped and fell down and came under the wheels of the road leveller. A critically injured Pankaj was rushed to a private hospital nearby, where he was declared dead on arrival.

The police said this was the fourth fatal accident at the construction site. While a worker was hit by one of the machines engaged in construction late last year, two men died in a fire at the site in March this year.
