‘It’s way past due’: residents call out ‘unsafe’ condition of Route 955
A group of residents from the Murray Corner area are meeting with Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure Jeff Carr this week about repairs on their corner of the New Brunswick road network, route 955, which runs from Cape Tormentine to Mates Corner.
Stephen Robb operates Loella’s Country Market, right on route 955. He tells CHMA that during the high tourist season, he and his staff heard repeatedly from customers saying, “how awful the road is, and why aren’t residents up in arms about how bad this road is, and how unsafe it is?”
The feedback prompted Robb to set up a petition in Loella’s, which collected hundreds of signatures over the past summer. Now Robb is helping organize the next step, a meeting in Fredericton with Minister Carr this week.
