Now life is not easy, there is a cheap to take advantage of, I believe that everyone will not miss,

Because of its cheap price, this gas station attracts a large number of drivers,
Cars waiting in line for refueling are lined up in long queues.
Unfortunately, there is a crosswalk in front of the gas station, so many pedestrians crossing the road are affected.
To ease traffic congestion, the Cumberland Parliament has recently agreed,
Construction of a central branch island on the crosswalk,
In this way, the Blaxcell St northbound vehicle cannot turn directly right to the gas station, but will have to take a detour to get to the gas station.
There is an elderly couple who have been living in Blaxcell St for 40 years, and their daughter Carol affirms this approach in parliament.
She said the central branch island did help ease traffic, but parliament should come up with more initiatives.
She suggested that the pedestrian passage could be moved to nearby Woolworths, as most people crossed the street here to get to Woolworths.
However, the Council told her that moving to Woolworths was a security risk because there was a roundabout nearby:
"They told me it was unsafe to put the crosswalk near Louis St, but we didn't know why, and there was no reasonable explanation."

The surrounding streets, she said, are examples of crosswalks set up near roundabouts.
She also suggested that the gas station should have multiple main entrances, change the location of the southbound bus stop, prohibit vehicles from "parking in parallel", and so on.
She said that there is only one reason why local traffic has become unsafe.
It's that gas station is too cheap.
A local lawmaker named Joseph Rahme said that it was okay for businesses to think of making money, but they could not "punish" local residents in disguise.
