Hi,
At the intersection of Cox Marsh Road and Torbay Road, snow has been piled up on the Collision Clinic side of Cox Marsh Road. As a result, for traffic exiting Cox Marsh Road and turning left towards St. John’s, the view of on-coming traffic is obstructed. As a result, you have to move further out into traffic to gain a clear view. This is further exacerbated by traffic typically moving faster than the posted 50 km/hr at this location. Obviously, this is a hazard and has resulted in a near accident already.
I don’t know whether the responsibility for addressing this lies with the Collision Clinic or the Town of Torbay. I am notifying both and requesting that this be addressed today, January 10, 2020.
Thank you,
Sue Ellen Maher
