In the nearly two months since cyclist Roberta Walker was struck by a vehicle and badly injured, the Coast Highway 101 corridor where she regularly rode has been upgraded and cyclists have produced a set of riding rules to help foster goodwill with motorists.
And people near and far have donated more than $90,000 of the estimated $125,000 she s expected to need to help pay for her current rehabilitation expenses as well as the anticipated costs of renovating her home so that she can eventually move back into it.

Encinitas should pay for renovation work at the long-closed Pacific View property, hire a communications specialist and focus on two housing-related issues in the coming year, City Council members agreed last month.
The council established four top priorities for recently hired City Manager Pam Antil during a goal-setting meeting. The priorities, which will guide city employees as they put together the coming fiscal year’s budget, are in addition to handling city issues related to the global coronavirus pandemic, as well as pursuing previously agreed upon projects, such as the Leucadia Streetscape plan to overhaul part of Coast Highway 101, council members noted.
