This work is not to be done with hatred but for love and respect for the community. It is not much labor intensive but it is rewarding when improvements are bring made and things are being done. The wider community may not realise what is being done in the back scenes, until one day they find this website and discover what is happening.
So what does this all mean, is that I got it wrong that we needed a pedestrian crossing on the east part of the current traffic lights, on Eastern side of Luxford Road North of Mount Druitt (entrance to Westfield Mount Druitt). It is called a 'Pedestrian Walk Phase'. So I am human!
I received from the Senior Traffic Management Officer, from Blacktown City Council Click Here For Senior Traffic Management Officers Letter of Response. I contacted him straight away and apologised for my wrong request. I remember when I was just a children we used to call them pedestrian crossings, terminologies have changed with the modern world. He was so polite, that he agreed that a 'Pedestrian Walk Phase' is require.
The only hiccup maybe is that the NSW Roads and Maritime Services may say it will delay traffic. My question is if it delays traffic and promotes accidents that have a delayed life how would they feel with their decision. There are a lot of community members that are day to day risking their lives crossing this road. Since there has been accidents there before, preventive measures must be used to prevent potential loss of life and/or extreme health issues.
Especially, if it was me that was involved in an accident, that would be shocking!
