LETTER: Route changes compromise safety

I use Richardson three to five times a week to travel between James Bay and Oak Bay. When the proposed modifications are completed my new route will take me past Margaret Jenkins Elementary School. I wonder how many others will do the same. No doubt there will be an increase in traffic flow past the school – not good for the children’s safety.

I use Richardson three to five times a week to travel between James Bay and Oak Bay. When the proposed modifications are completed my new route will take me past Margaret Jenkins Elementary School. I wonder how many others will do the same. No doubt there will be an increase in traffic flow past the school – not good for the children’s safety.

I have asked the Victoria council for data on the numbers of bikes and cars that use Richardson but have been ignored.
