I've only just seen this. I'd say this is more Forest Gate than Stratford. No information on how it happened. RIP Jay Kristiansen.

An update--the driver has had his prison sentence doubled, as the original one was 'too lenient' in the view of more senior judges:
"Cyclist fighting for life after hit-and-run in Newham, east London"

At a point where Newham Council have been funded to build temporary lanes, but have not yet commenced any work.
