## Resource

A 19-year-old motorcyclist died in a crash on Symons Valley Parkway in Evanston, sparking outrage and renewed calls for traffic safety reforms. Police are investigating, citing excessive speed as a key factor after the rider hit a curb, lost control, and struck a fire hydrant. Community members, already sounding alarms over years of speeding amid rising development, are now demanding action — including photo radar and faster installation of a recently approved traffic light — as Calgary inches toward surpassing last year’s fatal crash totals. A makeshift memorial has sprung up at the crash site, reflecting both grief and frustration as residents grapple with the loss of a young life and the city’s failure to protect its streets.
