Public opposed to road closure over bridge access
Strange scenes along Hampshire road railway on Sunday show gates blocking traffic and pedestrians. Drivers found masives directed to Anderson road while overhead bridge forced pedestrians, cyclists, and elders to navigate a dangerous crossing on a hot day. Concerns rise over legal rights of the Railways Commissioner and calls to compel respect for civic rights, as Werribes council backs Brayhronk in urging a road board takeover of Millar's road.
