A WOMAN is being treated for “critical injuries” after being struck by a car in Woolloongabba in Brisbane’s inner south.

Emergency services were called to the incident at the intersection of Annerley Rd and Ross St about 7.30am.

Queensland Ambulance Service described the incident as “serious”.

The woman, aged 62 and from Highgate Hill, was taken to the PA hospital.

Brisbane City Police Acting Inspector Tony O’Neil said it appeared the woman was struck by a car turning from Stephens St to Annerley Rd at the intersection with Ross St.

“The woman’s received some pretty traumatic injuries and she’s been taken to hospital for treatment,” Acting Insp O’Neill said.

Yeronga resident Olgar Wickham said she saw the woman, who was walking with a dog, get struck by the vehicle.

“She was in a very bad state,” she said.

Ms Wickham said a number of people rushed to her aid, while others called emergency services.

She went to look for the dog which had run off after impact.

The driver of the vehicle which struck the woman was in “absolute shock” she said.

Ms Wickham said she walked the road daily and often saw near-misses between motorists, cyclists and pedestrians.

“I really would like people to make an effort to make Annerley Rd safer,” she said.

“I would like to see improvements on this road for the safety of cyclists and pedestrians.”

Police are still investigating but believe the woman was crossing on a green pedestrian light.

Acting Insp O’Neil said the amount of pedestrians stuck by vehicles in the last month was concerning.

“I think people, when they are crossing the road, even if they have right of way, they need to take care and make sure that motorists are seeing them,” he said.

“You can’t take anything for granted, unfortunately.”

Police remained on scene at 845am and had traffic diversions in place.

Drivers had earlier been told to expect delays at Fitzgibbon, north of Brisbane, following a track fault that was also causing delays for rail passengers.

TransLink said there were 30-minute delays for the Caboolture, Redcliffe Peninsula and Sunshine Coast line trains in both directions due to the fault at Carseldine. The fault has since been fixed.

Ipswich and Springfield line trains travelling outbound were earlier experiencing delays of up to 20 minutes but this has since reduced, with residual delays of up to 15 minutes being experienced at 7.40am.

A Queensland Rail spokesman said the fault had caused the Beams Rd crossing to “operate in safe mode”. According to Queensland Traffic, all lanes were blocked at the rail crossing at Beams Rd, Fitzgibbon, at about 7.25am due to the fault.

Several trains have also been cancelled, including the 8.27am Kuraby to Roma Street train cancelled between Kuraby and Yeerongpilly stations and the 9.07am Ipswich to Central train cancelled between Ipswich and Redbank stations.

West of Brisbane, a patient has been transported to Toowoomba Hospital following a vehicle rollover on the Warrego Hwy at Helidon about 7.25am.
