Tributes to 20-year-old student struck by car and killed as she walked to her Saturday job - Manchester Evening News
Another bright young female needlessly killed, IMO. Manchester City Council and Oldham MBC should hang their heads in shame. After the M60 was built, Hollinwood Avenue should have been traffic calmed. Instead, it remains a dual-carriageway 40mph racetrack through a suburban area. This incident occurred where there are complex junctions, local shops and businesses, and the local (Moston) railway station entrance. Speed limit of 20mph and vertical traffic calming would be more appropriate here.
Local authorities are as much to blame as the driver, in their failure to deliver safer streets for people.
