The parents of a woman killed on a road in Glasgow say that seeing her cycle route made them think it looked “like a highway”.

On the morning of 27 January 2023, Emma was dragged under an HGV on the Broomielaw, which runs parallel to the River Clyde, and dragged 53m (174ft).

Since the tragedy Mr Newman and his wife, Rose Marie Burke, have been campaigning for improved road safety.

Ms Burke told BBC Scotland News: “I think she was aware, in general, of the dangers and she did everything possible to make herself visible and to respect the law.

“Unfortunately, drivers in her case did not.”
