Peigan Trail was closed for much of Wednesday morning as the investigation got underway with traffic in the mostly industrial area being detoured around the crash.
On Friday, as part of the World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims, Calgary Police released the latest numbers of fatal crashes.
Wednesday’s fatality is the 33rd death on Calgary roads this year, adding to what was already a 10-year-high, and the 13th fatal pedestrian crash this year.
Officers are urging both drivers and pedestrians to pay attention while sharing Calgary’s roads and to limit distractions.
