2009-05-15 - Rider Down/Fatality, Greenwich

I noticed the railing ripped off too but do we know if this occured as part of this accident?

This is for sure a dangerous junction for cyclists and one that I will not filter but wait my turn and then hog the whole lane and not the poor excuse for a cycle lane on the roundbout. This when cycling from Woolwich to Greenwich direction. The traffic lights are a real pinch point, particualry when there are HGV's and doubly so if any are turning left onto the A102.

I am pretty sure I remember seeing the damage when I rode through on Friday night but I did not pay that much attention because I though, just another prang at that junction, prob due to someone jumping the light heading onto the A102.
