The Camilla intersection is a dangerous one at the best of times, and now that we are entering into cottage season, it will become even more so.
After visiting family on old Hurontario Street, one road east of Hwy 10, I have spent my time waiting to turn left (south) at that intersection. Eventually, in the good weather, I gave up the death-defying act and instead wound my way down old Hurontario to Hockley Road, and then headed to the Hockley Road/Hwy 10 intersection to use the traffic lights. Most drivers do not realize that this road twists and turns its way all the way to Hockley in the good weather (it's not maintained in winter), but it was my route of choice instead of making that trecherous left-hand turn.
Mono Council is considering what to do with the intersection, and is being lobbied by the Camilla's Womens Institute to improve the situation. Good work, ladies. Let's hope Mono Council hears from the MTO soon - The Orangeville Citizen reports that they have not responded to the Mono Council for YEARS on this issue.
