PLACARD: Murray Turley protested roadworks that are narrowing the entrance<br />
to Grassmere St from Main North Rd.<br />

Phil Day responds to<br />
the story in Nor’West<br />
<strong>News</strong> regarding<br />
Murray Turley’s<br />
protest over work<br />
narrowing Grassmere<br />
St and Main North Rd<br />
for fear of creating a<br />
traffic nightmare<br />
A road from Grassmere<br />
St to Rutland St would help<br />
get traffic off Main North<br />
Rd and out of Northlands.<br />
Mothers complained<br />
that traffic would endanger<br />
their kids at Paparoa St<br />
School, yet they persist<br />
in getting their kids out<br />
of cars on the road rather<br />
than pedestrian side.<br />
I saw the paint marks<br />
on the ground at Grassmere<br />
St and Main North<br />
Rd corner and couldn’t<br />
believe how narrow the<br />
council intended to make<br />
the road.<br />
The paint lines are now<br />
concrete and I predict<br />
mayhem as I sometimes<br />
need to drive a bus to and<br />
from Ngaio Marsh.<br />
With the new cycleway<br />
running between car<br />
parking and pavement, I<br />
also envisage cyclists being<br />
knocked off by passengers<br />
opening their doors<br />
while exiting cars as the<br />
passenger, unlike drivers,<br />
have no rear vision mirrors<br />
to see cyclists coming<br />
from behind on the<br />
cycleway.<br />
Why wasn’t the pathway<br />
behind Tulloch Pl not<br />
extended all the way past<br />
Ngaio Marsh to Paparoa St<br />
School and Rutland St?<br />
