lights 46- queen st august 14 1967 dear sir i noticed in lst week s her id a reayar admcating traf fie lights at two dangerous in tersestios in town viz moun taumsw fd guelph and maple and gti i can mention ipore but one in particular icsin st and maple ave allow me space in vour pa per to express m views on this matter of lmportaice traffici lights at three death traps ifii town no 1 mountainview and guelph pour lanes on the high way two on mountainview with some motorists using thej wr5 lanes en the highway cars using mountainview are in an awkward position in cross tog not knowing what oncoming traffic will or intend to do hence we get an expensive ac dtient as a result which could fcave been a fatal one no 2 maple ave and guelph the craziest intersecton to town four lanes on high way narrowing down to two within a fev ards east of nter section same trouble met there as at no 1 but with the addition of an island stuck in the centre of the road the nut tlest idea ever thought of andi which since it was put there has caused more accidents than en ugh no 3 main street south and maple ave w situated in a valley at its lowest point sur ounded bv high banks obstruct sng view of traffic in all directions another intersection worth watching will be king and mountainview when the new fcridge is placed oer the cnr tracks our tathers of confederation aay they are waiting until they fat enough mony in before they can pay for these safetv meas tires mr editor if thev have not got the money to spend to kelp save human lrvcs and pro- party where in creation have they jot h from in order to pay themselves over j1400 per year to stt around a table and con flab what shall be done and who to do it surely the ex- pense to instal tratf c signals at these three dangerous inter sections in order to try to stop a fatal accident is worth more to our town than our councillors lining their pockets by taking ut that 1400 for each one from our taxes or rmit a fa glen williams tal accident occur same as it did at calamity corners john wa ter and highway before they wake up and attend to business god forbid that we have to wait for that to happen my solution to the matter would be for our councillors to show what good citizens they are and that they have the love of georgetown tn their hearts and take no remuneration for one year that would amount to 11200 just the eight men al one would not that amount of money saved from our taxes go quite a way to foot the expense of these safety measures thanking you for the space in our paper i chas davis i west
