WA rail union pushes back on proposal for safety lights on trains

WA's rail union opposed a proposed draft bill mandating stricter lighting on trains during a parliamentary session on June 17, 2026. Union state secretary Josh Dekuyer criticized the bill, stating it misplaces the responsibility for safety onto train operators rather than road users. The union advocates for improved infrastructure at level crossings instead of additional lighting measures.
