A SOLUTION possibly to the<br />
chronic traffic congestion that the<br />
Halswell Junction Rd and Springs<br />
Rd roundabout causes.<br />
If you don’t get away to work<br />
early, getting through the roundabout<br />
and onto the Southern<br />
Motorway means a 15min or so<br />
backlog to Prebbleton.<br />
This has been happening for a<br />
long time now and will get worse<br />
as the motorway extension work<br />
kicks up another gear.<br />
So the powers that be will<br />
install a traffic signal (see page 1)<br />
at the roundabout to combat the<br />
2km of traffic that backs up on<br />
weekdays.<br />
Once you get to the roundabout<br />
it’s a game of dodgems getting<br />
across and around into the motorway<br />
flow.<br />
That can be exciting, or fearful,<br />
depending on what kind of person<br />
you are behind the wheel.<br />
