Residents have said that since the new BRT corridor was created on Fuel road has made motorist lives difficult.
“The accidents on Fuel road have increased the past few months since this corridor, because our roads aren’t up to standard for this corridor but it was forced onto our roads,” said Leslie Fortien.
