EDITOR – I have just read the latest issue and agree with Mr Lodetti that something needs to be done to ease the flow of traffic in Dickens Road.
Read Mr Lodetti’s letter here
What was once a peaceful residential area has now become an industrial area with many heavy duty vehicles using Dickens Road daily.
It has become a nightmare trying to turn into Dickens Road in the morning, with traffic coming from all directions. There are more and more buildings being built along Arbour Road thus increasing the traffic. I have also recently heard that there will be a motor vehicle testing centre opening some time at the bottom of Dickens Road. This will also increase the traffic along the road.
The N2 southbound on ramp has never been completed. I feel Dickens Road needs to be widened and upgraded as soon as possible – before there is a major accident.
