TILBURG – A 44-year-old cyclist died on Wednesday afternoon after falling under a concrete mixer on the Stappegoorweg in Tilburg. She cycled along the exit of a construction site where excavators and other construction vehicles drive around.

The driver of the concrete mixer probably overlooked the cyclist while leaving. She ended up under the heavy vehicle. Visibility screens were placed at the scene of the accident to give the emergency services space. The cyclist was rushed to hospital.

The woman ultimately died from her injuries there. The police are investigating how the fatal accident could have happened. The area was closed off during the hours-long investigation at the construction site.
