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.
