For years San Marina and Uitsig residents have been complaining about the dangerous intersection between Oudevlei Road and Prince George Drive.

At the November 2007 AGM, there was a general sigh of relief when Councillor Demetri Qually announced that Council was looking into this matter and was considering some traffic-calming measures. Their solution: BIGGER SIGNS.

Councillor Qually, I don’t know if you wish us to thank you for the new signs. In all honesty, what difference do you think bigger signs are going to make?

Once again, the people of San Marina and Vrygrond are being thrown a bone just to placate us. NOT ACCEPTABLE. Go back to the drawing board and do something productive. Maybe, if you do not want to give us traffic lights, at least give us a circle.
