Dead-end danger: resident fears for safety

A resident from 4010-33rd Street in Vernon, behind the Econo Lodge Motel, has contacted a city council member expressing safety concerns.

“It appears he is having some issues with traffic. It is at a dead-end. He is not happy with how the signage is because people are driving right up to his property,” Coun. Dalvir Nahal said.

The street is often used as a bypass of busy 32nd Street, with motorists unfamiliar with the area driving at speed past the no-thru signage, at the intersection of 33rd Street and 42nd Avenue.

“Coming quite fast, and he is concerned for his safety. I know bylaw has been there a few times,” Nahal added.
