A truck driver is facing multiple charges over the latest death at a notorious pedestrian crossing in Melbourne's eastern suburbs.

Kathy Curlis, 60, died in July last year after a car was rear-ended and pushed into her as she crossed a busy road.

Kathy Curlis and her husband Harry.

She had been using the marked zebra crossing at Mountain Highway and Boronia Road and the car's driver had seen her and come to a complete stop to allow her to cross, police said.

That's when a delivery truck is alleged to have slammed into the back of the car, launching the car forward, triggering the fatal collision.
