Why can't Meggison be considered a main thoroughfare like Buna Vista or Morris Blvd and do away with the gates?
Once per week sounds expensive enough to find a solution to the problem. Not sure about what a "minor or major thoroughfare should be at that location, but I have a problem with the way the gates are painted. They are NOT very visible - mostly white with small sections of red doesn't seem to work especially if they are in shade. How about the whole gate being optic YELLOW with maybe some type of reflectors on them?
......I remember reading that there is some STUPID reason for them to be white and red. But, with all the problems with those colors isn't it time for CHANGE ?
