Austin Miller
Hal Ballard, acting executive director of the Washington County Bicycle Transportation Coalition has organized a brief memorial service tonight for Austin Miller, the 15 year-old who was killed after colliding with a bus in Beaverton yesterday.
The service will begin at 5:00pm tonight at the intersection of SW Murray and Farmington Road.
Ballard says he and a group of supporters will hold signs with the ‘And we Bike‘ slogan, “to remind motorists of our relationship to them”.
The City of Beaverton has also granted permission for a ghost bike to be installed in memory of Austin.
