Caesarea Ratepayers' Association asks... Should we have a three-way stop at the main intersection? Caesarea Ratepayers A report on our meeting of Thursday, Oct. 19. The atten- dance was not large but the input certainly was. We have a number of dark areas in our village due to the lack of street lighting. The person reporting on this item was asked to make notes on the specific areas. It could mean we need tree' pruning or additional lights. Two people were killed walking on the side of the road just recently in Ontario. Thoughts were expressed whether we should have a hwy. stop in all directions at our main intersection. (Pier, Hwy. 57 and Cedar Grove corner). Quite often drivers pull out of Pauline's west exit and speed up going south. This is bad for people driving south off Cedar Grove or Hwy. 57. The space distance is very short. Also mentioned that drivers travelling west on 57 and turning south feel they have the right-of- way over drivers going south off Cedar Grove where they do not. This point is careless driving. Plans are to be made in future meetings for a skating party to be held in early February.
