Nowhere to run to

FIRST-CLASS planning has resulted in roadworks causing traffic delays on both sides of the River Derwent between New Norfolk and Granton/Bridgewater. Newly-installed signs on Boyer Rd warn of 15-minute delays while part of that road is being resurfaced, while across the river the reconstruction of the Lyell Highway has moved on to a new section near the Motor Yacht Club of Tasmania. This leaves the Molesworth Bridle Track, or a circuitous route via Bothwell, as the only way of avoiding roadworks when travelling between New Norfolk and the city. NNNews suggests leaving a bit earlier… good advice for the driver of the grey Mazda 3 who overtook on double white lines at Sorell Creek this morning, and then ran a red light on the Lyell Highway roadworks.
