City reviewing safety on O'Connor bike lane following opening day crash

By Kristy Cameron, CFRA News, October 26, 2016

City staff are already looking at tweaks to the segregated bike lane on O'Connor Street, after a cyclist was injured in the bikeway’s first collision on opening day.

Not long after the ribbon cutting, a cyclist was struck by a driver who was turning left on the one-way street, according to paramedics.

"With great smiles and ringing bells we went out ... and officially opened it," says Capital Coun. David Chernushenko. "Believe me, when I listened to the evening news and heard there had already been an accident, nothing more could have hurt more than that."
