A 37-year-old South San Francisco man died Monday night after the bicycle he was riding collided with a car on Cañada Road near Woodside's Filoli estate, according to the California Highway Patrol.
The crash caused law enforcement to shut down the road for several hours.
According to initial reports, an Acura sedan and a cyclist were both traveling north on Cañada Road when the crash occurred around 5 p.m. The cause of the collision has not yet been determined and is currently under investigation, California Highway Patrol's Redwood City office said in a Facebook post.
The 22-year-old driver of car and the passenger were both taken to the hospital as a precaution, according to CHP.
Authorities reopened Cañada Road shortly before 8:30 p.m. on Monday after closing following the fatal crash earlier in the evening.
Witnesses are asked to contact the Redwood City Area Office at 650-779-2700 with any information regarding Monday night's crash.
This is the second time in less than two weeks that a cyclist has died after a collision with a motorist in the area. On March 31, a cyclist was killed in a hit-and-run collision in Redwood City. The incident remains under investigation.
