The family of a cyclist killed last year when she was struck by a sanitation truck in Philadelphia has settled claims against the trucking company for $6.125 million, a portion of which is set to go toward charitable organizations aimed at improving public safety.

Attorneys with Saltz Mongeluzzi Barrett & Bendesky and Stuart Leon Bicycle Crash Law announced the settlement Thursday. The attorneys are representing the family of Emily Fredericks, who was killed in November in Center City when she was struck by a Gold Medal Environmental sanitation truck as it made a right turn.
