Cyclist Nils Linke, 22, was struck and killed by a drunk driver on the corridor in 2010. The German tourist’s death grabbed headlines and galvanized the long-languishing safety project, said Michael Helquist, a writer and neighbor who was among those instrumental in advocating for the street changes. Linke’s death “was a sad situation to get through,” Helquist said.
But Supervisor Vallie Brown, who represents one neighborhood the project cuts through and worked to usher in the project as a legislative aide, was hopeful Linke’s death will ultimately make a difference, through the safety improvements presented today, and also through future ones she promised to pursue. “We had the tragedy of a cyclist being killed,” she told the crowd Wednesday. “It also gave us the power to keep moving. We’re not done."
