A section of Griffith Park Drive is closed to cars in an effort to make it safer for cyclists, runners, and walkers.
"Griffith Park has really become a commuter cut-through for the 5 ," Kevitt said."Unfortunately it took a tragedy for this transformation to become an idea on paper to reality.""Andrew was amazing," said Andre Goeritz whose husband was killed while cycling."He was an amazing, loving, giving person."
The 77-year-old was training for a charity ride in April when he was hit and killed by an accused drunk driver speeding through the park. Jelmert's husband is calling on local leaders and safe-street advocates to help make the pilot program permanent after it's evaluated over at least the next six weeks.
"Every person has the power to make changer happen, but they have to believe that they have the power to make things happen," Goeritz said."That's why I came out. That's the only reason I came out, because I think that my voice can make a difference and if I can make a difference for Andrew, I'll do it and I'll do whatever it takes."This article tagged under:
