Perry Vale is going to be closed TOTALLY, much earlier than planned.
Just received this email from Mick Hepworth, the guy lumbared with looking after this stretch of road during the works...
Quote:
Yesterday evening I was witness to a minor accident involving a transit van and the barriers. As you can probably guess the transit van was driving the wrong way against the road closure. Luckily the driver hit the barriers and not a pedestrian.
I have no other option than to close the road completely this afternoon. I was going to undertake this on Monday morning, but now I have no option but do the closure sooner rather than later. The longer I leave this the more chance there is of there being a serious accident.
So I guess thats that.
With that, I would like to thank Mick for keeping me in the loop with regards to what was going on there, following my initial mail. And also popped on here to see peoples comments etc. Mick, if you have any friends or family with morals like your own, please encourage them to join the local authorities, we could do with another 10 of you about.
And to the drivers who ignored the signs again and again. Well done.... you just closed a road early, due to your stupidity and ignorance! Not to mention your dangerous driving.
