Residents have asked Auckland Transport and the Waitematā Local Board to extend yellow lines at two intersections on Warnock Street to improve safety.
Extending the yellow lines at the intersection of Livingstone St would mean this accident wouldn’t have happened. The corner of Warnock St on the hill also needs a speed restriction and “slow down” painted on the road. Surprisingly, an accident hasn’t occurred here more often. This occurred in February and the smashed car remained as a warning for a week.
Yellow lines are also needed either side of Hope Street as it intersects with Warnock to allow those vehicles exiting the one way street to have clear vision of the road they are entering. Instead of a simple fix that requires paint so is reasonable inexpensive, AT and WLB have their own expensive ‘solution’…another noisy hump up the road from the intersection. Well, it is your money they are spending and the ability to spend other people’s money can be addictive when there aren’t consequences.
Remember this in September when voting.
