Get rid of the stop lights and place a large round-about and be done with it.
Mmmmmkaaaay?!?
THE DREADED COMMUTE.
What happened to standardization , virtually every roundabout in Bermuda is a different size and shape with those on hills being no exception,there are several roundabouts which are an engineering night mare and down right dangerous with related accidents causing increase in insurance premiums and inconvenience.
Paget traffic lights were always a waste the public’s valuable time causing lengthy delays if you put a price on that blunder, it in the hundreds of thousands,with 15 plus minute bumper to bumper delays from the bottom of Coral Beach hill on a good day.
All it takes is a rear end accident and you are looking at another hour at least in lost man hours for every one on the loop.
I would leave home at 7.30am as many do to make 8.30am at work that is creating unproductive man hours and add that to the wear and tear of motor vehicles brakes and transmissions. “WHAT IF” the light go our in River City.
Bumper to bumper traffic delays at East Broad way are no better.
Don’t give me the excuses about the “horse and buggy days”.
All that tells me there is a lack of fore sight and a liberal helping of a no care attitude.
