Description
More than two dozen north Seattle residents marched along Aurora Avenue on Saturday to remember the victims who have been killed by drivers on the busy street and other streets throughout the city.
The Aurora Reimagined Coalition organized Saturday's event to advocate for pedestrian safety and remember victims killed by drivers.
"It's heart breaking. Someone lives an entire life for it to end in this way, it's very tragic and unnecessary," said Eudora Hawkes.
Hawkes is one of about 30 people marching along busy Aurora Avenue on the morning of Nov. 18, remembering victims like her sister, who was killed in October 2022 while crossing North 100th Street and Aurora Avenue North.
"She was struck crossing the street in her wheelchair, which obviously should never happen to anyone," Hawkes said. "Anyone should be able to safely cross the streets."
