Cyclists plan 'draw-in' at site of Tuesday's fatal crash

Cyclists are planning to stage a 'draw-in' protest at Elephant and Castle, where a cyclist was killed yesterday by a lorry. Protesters will draw chalk lines around an area they want to see segregated to help protect cyclists.

Next week's protest is being organised on Facebook:

To mark yesterday's tragedy and to protest at the continued total failure by Southwark Council and TfL to install emergency protected by-passes at dangerous junctions such as the Elephant, we will draw in Green and White Chalk the protected cycle-lane that Southwark and TfL should be installing immediately.

Protesters also plan to stage a 'die-in', by laying on the ground with their bikes along the route of a segregated cycle-lane.
