2. Sunnyvale Teen Dies After Motorcycle Crash at Santa Clara's Stevens Creek, Winchester (newsbreak.com) — A deadly motorcycle crash at Stevens Creek and Winchester in Santa Clara is renewing attention on safety along the Stevens Creek corridor that runs into Cupertino. A regional committee has backed bus and protected bike lane upgrades, but they still need approval from Cupertino, San Jose, Santa Clara, the county and VTA, which could shape how safely locals travel this busy route.
