Annexation of Alexander Road

Michael from Trentham

Not long ago Alexander Road in Trentham/Wallaceville was a quick way to get from Silverstream/Pinehaven to Upper Hutt's CBD and beyond with an 80km speed limit. Then along came a roundabout one third into the road going north and this slowed down traffic.
But soon there will be as many as four roundabouts and at least one T intersection clogging up Alexander Road and with it the speed limit will surely be reduced to 60km if not 50km.
Oh well, it wasn"t that many years ago when in urban areas, a person had to walk in front of a moving vehicle with a flag to warn people on foot of an approaching monster.
