Can the Einstein’s at Wanderers Cricket Stadium figure out a way not to put residents near the stadium and Corlett Drive through sheer misery every time they have a big game or event on?
We are sick and tired of dealing with horrendous traffic funnelled into narrow suburban residential streets, cars parked on pavements and driveways, and then having to argue, plead and negotiate with super-rude Metro cops about wanting to simply get into the street where you live.
Now here is an idea – how difficult is it to supply every home and business owner in the affected areas with bright stickers, which clearly indicate to the cop geniuses that the owners actually belong there and should be let through pronto instead of being harassed and abused?
Or is it beyond their levels of common sense and consideration?
We’ve simply had enough of this.
