Blackspot fix made it worse

26 Aug, 2010 01:00 AM
IS there someone in either Vic-Roads or Wodonga council who may care to explain the reason for the shoddy attempt to “un-black spot” the Melbourne Road between Morrison Street and Melrose Drive?

Is this the finished result?

There is low ramp to get onto it from the east and a road surface lower than the kerb and gutter so that when it rains jet boat racing is a possibility.

From the west you encounter a poorly marked merge from two lanes to one near large trees.

More of a black spot I suggest.

Not to mention the state of both the Melrose Drive-Lawrence Street and Melbourne Road-Melrose Drive roundabout surfaces.

There are plenty of law firms eager to offer their services to victims of accidents caused by such neglect and poor workmanship.

— PAUL UPTON,

West Wodonga
