I am not sure how this could have happened.
If it is the junction I am thinking of then , heading North, coming from the left, it is cyclists only. I jump these lights routinely most nights and the only danger is looking to the right for vehicles coming out of the turning. However, even if they do come out and turn right, they will not enter the buslane where I usually am, so it is pretty safe. Unless of course she was turning right into Fieldway Cresent.
If thats the case then someone must have jumped a light, unless she was cycling very slowly and turned right in front of the lorry as it was pulling out on amber to turn left?
Whatever happened it is very tragic either way
