Bei einem Unfall ist am Mittwoch, den 9.12.2020 ein 73-jähriger Radfahrer ums Leben gekommen. Der Fahrer eines Lastwagens hat den Mann auf dem E-Bike beim Abbiegen übersehen. Die Kreuzung ist etwas unübersichtlich, allerdings soll der Radfahrer auf dem für ihn vorgesehenen Schutzstreifen geradeaus in Richtung Raimundstraße unterwegs gewesen sein.
Der Streifen ist inzwischen (Juni 2022), wie mittlerweile an vielen anderen Stellen in der Stadt, mit roter Farbe versehen.

A 73-year-old cyclist was killed in an accident on Wednesday, Dec. 9, 2020. The driver of a truck overlooked the man on the e-bike while turning. The intersection is somewhat confusing, however, the cyclist was reportedly traveling straight ahead in the direction of Raimundstraße in the protective lane provided for bicycle riders.
In the meantime (June 2022), the strip has been painted red, as is now the case in many other places in the city.
