I’ve lived in the woods circuit for 22 years and the traffic is only getting worse and worse. I work near the Ampol petrol station at Menai. It takes me less than 3 minutes to drive there in the morning. It can easily take anywhere between 20-30 minutes to get home in the afternoon. It’s a proper joke. That extra bay built earlier this year has made it even worse. It only encourages more parents to pick their child up there, and it actually slows the line down as more cars are having to give way to cars entering and leaving the drop off bay. I want something done about this, it is so unreasonable. Unfair. Poor effort by the council.

I get caught constantly through the school semesters of a morning trying to get through to Menai from Bangor. Why is there no policing of those who block the roundabout ?

I live in Bray Grove and trying to get get in or out early morning or mid afternoon is a "night mare" since the change. Heaven help us if an emergency vehicle has to gain entry during those times

I 100% back this request up. The traffic is absolutely ridiculous it can take me 20 mins to get in from the main round about.

Hate the times of drop off and pick up time, the traffic at roundabout is a disaster at these times, I'm fed up with this. Council needs to do something right away

This impacts me daily on school days. It is a nuisance and potential hazard for emergency services. The school and council have a responsibility to come up with a better solution for our community. Cars queuing over and around round abouts is not safe.

Council needs to use some common sense to resolving this issue. You have created a nightmare for local residents who are effectively locked down for the morning and afternoon pick up periods (30 mins) unable to safely exit or enter from our own homes due to our only access bring highjacked but the incompetence of poor planning and the ignorance of school authorities and families. Next time my daughter has a life threatening seizure let’s hope it’s not between 3pm and 3:30pm on a weekday, or it is highly likely she would be either dead or brain damaged! Because there is absolutely no way an ambulance would get through.

Incompetent council paired with inconsiderate parents and inept school management have created this debacle. Forestgrove Drive is a resident street and not a car park for picking up school kids. Sutherland Council fix this mess immediately.

These gates were not open when we moved into this estate. It is now ridiculous at pick up and drop off times to be able to get home or leave the estate.

Pick up bay should be the same as LHCS.... 1 way in one way out. Aquinas and holy family are not a K-12 so change the finishing times

For the safety of the kids and residents, please fix this twice daily risk. My elderly parents live in the estate and I would hate for them to need an ambulance or similar during school pick up or drop off. The ambulance would be left waiting whilst the traffic moved.
