What is the impact of Heysen Boulevard being only half completed?
Traffic cannot flow through the growth area as intended and is pushed onto local roads that were never intended to carry the loads now being experienced which creates safety issues and delays.
Because Heysen Boulevard is a series of dead ends:
- In times of emergency, response times are slower.
- The growth area is not serviced by public transport.
- A number of retail and commercial centres have not progressed meaning that significant employment creation hasn’t occurred.
