Speed humps needed in Queenstown
Dear Editor,
Yet again, there has been another accident at the junction of Crown Street and New Garden Street. These accidents are common. This one has seriously injured one driver who had a lady passenger who is pregnant. One car ended in the trench.
We have had a fair load of speed bumps installed in many places where one wonders why they have been put there. But no-one has looked at the accident statistics – if these exist – and seen that the above corner is extremely dangerous.
We need speed bumps on New Garden Street both ways and Crown Street both ways on this junction – just the same as at other junctions such as Church Street and I think it is New Garden Street.
It is criminally irresponsible that the City Council cannot see the danger and put in the speed bumps. It is not a huge cost after all. Please take note of this and install the speed bumps at the earliest opportunity to help ruining citizens’ lives.
