A construction bin blocked the bike lane near the cyclist was fatally struck on Thursday.

After the death of a sixth cyclist this year in Toronto, a company that works with delivery truck drivers is calling for improved bike lane infrastructure to help both cyclists and motorists get around the city in a safer manner.A 24-year-old cyclist was fatally struck in July after merging onto the road due to a construction bin blocking the bike lane on Bloor Street.

"We're not out here to be parking out in bike lanes … I just don't think was clear marking on the road of where that parking was and he just kind of pulled right into that spot … It was right in the middle of a bike lane though," Page said."There's people coming over pictures, yelling at him. Unfortunately I think it was just like a state of being frantic.

Last week, the City of Toronto said it had laid bylaw charges against two companies that left a construction bin in the Bloor Street W. bike lane where a 24-year-old cyclist was killed.
