Nearly one month after a 24-year-old pedestrian was struck by a cement truck driver, the man has died from his injuries, police say.

The pedestrian was walking east on Lawrence Avenue West within the boundaries of a marked crosswalk on Nov. 13 at about 10:50 a.m., police said in a news release Thursday.

A 60-year-old man driving a cement truck east on Lawrence, turned south to go on Keele Street, police said, hitting the pedestrian in broad daylight.

Police found the victim with life-threatening injuries, and he was rushed to hospital. The pedestrian, who wasn’t identified, died Wednesday.

He’s the fifth pedestrian who has been struck and killed by a motorist on Lawrence Avenue this year.

According to statistics compiled by the Star using police and media reports, five cyclists and 42 pedestrians were killed on Toronto streets in 2018. That total is higher than any single year in a police database that goes back to 2007.

The Star began keeping its own count of traffic deaths in 2017 to fill gaps in police numbers, which don’t include fatalities that occur on private property or provincially owned 400 series highways.

It’s unclear if that number was an all-time record, as the Star does not have independent data on pedestrian and cyclist deaths before that year.

Thirteen motorists and 10 motorcyclists were also killed on Toronto streets in 2018, according to Star data.

In June, Mayor John Tory announced “Vision Zero 2.0,” a revamp of a three-year-old plan that has so far failed to reduce the city’s rate of traffic deaths. The plan calls for lower speed limits, which Tory said he wants implemented quickly, with stickers over existing signs if need be.

The plan also calls for the implementation of short-term design changes using paint, bollards and other features, rather than waiting for crumbling streets to be routinely rebuilt with the city’s “complete streets” system that includes pedestrian safety concerns.
