Danielle "a#u was hit by a car and killed after being doored while she cycled along $ueen

The ghost bike that was erected at the site of the accident, the memorial ride by hundreds of local cyclists and the ongoing public conversation that the tragedy sparked in this city all suggest a strong public desire to make cycling safer here. 'n Ottawa, as in other cities around the province, growing numbers of people either use their bikes for transportation, or would like to.

Dr. Dan )ass will lead the review of cycling deaths in the province *with a view to making recommendations on how to prevent deaths in the future.* "ot all cycling deaths are preventable.

'f the coroner's review produces useful, detailed recommendations, it should be timely advice to help Ottawa and other cities build safety into their cycling plans.
