Police have reconstructed the scene of a fatal crash where a cyclist died after being hit by a lorry in Bearsden.
The rare reconstruction was carried out by road cops on Wednesday, April 17, in the town.
It comes after we reported the incident that took place on Tuesday, March 19.
Una Brandreth from the Stafford area in England passed away following the horror crash on Manse Road at the junction with Drymen Road in the town.

The incident involved Una, who was a cyclist and a heavy goods vehicle.
999 crews rushed to the scene, however, the 56-year-old woman was tragically pronounced dead.
The lorry driver was uninjured during the accident.
Almost one month on from the horror crash, as part of an investigation into it, officers have carried out a physical and digital reconstruction of it in Bearsden.
In images, cops could be seen on the road as they carried out the reconstruction.
Officers were also seen with a camera discussing the incident, while a truck and cyclist were also pictured at the scene.

In a statement, they said: “Una was a much-loved, sister, mother and daughter, and will be much missed by everyone who knew her."
