 Following years of advocating for a safer walkway for pedestrians, the death of a child leads to a closure and further safety measures.
 
 Abstract:
 --
 
 Excerpt:
 
 The boy, who was a student at Kennedy Public School, was struck near the intersection of Canongate Trail and Purcell Square  where a foot path that leads to Kennedy connects Purcell Square   around 3:30 p.m. last Tuesday.
 
 He was taken to hospital where he later died of his injuries.
 
 Karygiannis said he has been working with parents "for a long time" to make the area safer for children.
