Fix the South Aspy River Bridge
Petition published by Leah MacLeod on Feb 22, 2012
| 595 Signatures |
Target: Department of Transportation
Region: Canada
Petition Background (Preamble):
Last April, they put up stop lights & closed one lane of the South Aspy bridge because it's unsafe to drive on. That lane on the bridge is now piled with snow.
How could the constant weight of snow be any less dangerous than the weight of a car driving over it? If the bridge is that damaged and unsafe, why hasn't anything been done about it yet? Are they waiting until it lets go due to the weight of a school bus full of kids driving over it? Something needs to be done. Now.
The Department of Transportation have simply said "It's on the list". Just how long is that list? Where are our Tax Dollars going? Certainly not to road and bridge maintenance.
