At approximately 2:46 p.m. on Aug. 23, 2026, police responded to a collision involving a motorcycle in the area of Calgary Trail at Anthony Henday Drive. It was reported that a 2026 Honda CBR650R motorcycle was travelling westbound on Anthony Henday and was attempting to exit on the Calgary Trail ramp when the driver lost control and was ejected from his bike.
EMS responded and treated and transported the 22-year-old motorcycle driver to hospital where he later succumbed to his injuries.
The EPS Major Collision Investigations Section (MCIS) is continuing to investigate.
“It is incredibly unfortunate that the city’s first two motorcycle fatalities of 2026 have occurred just days apart,” says S/Sgt. Richard Windover of the Major Collision Investigations Section. “Our thoughts are with the families, friends and loved ones affected by these tragic losses. As summer comes to an end, we are urging all motorists to slow down.”
Speed is believed to be a factor in this collision.
