Get traffic lights on Ballarat/Rippon road intersection

In need of lights

The 2 intersections on Ballarat Road, Rippon Road and George Street,need updating to make it safer. The turning lane on the George Street intersection is too narrow (the width of a car does not fit inside the lane) and the rise and slight bend make visibility very difficult, especially during peak hours. The Rippon Road intersection is also dangerous, especially during peak times, cars are waiting for 10+minutes at times to cross the highway, making some people impatient. The placement of the shelter shed on the Rippon Road intersection is too close to the corner, abstructing the view of the road and making it unsafe to cross or turn.

There needs to be something put in there my kids would love to walk to school but I don’t trust Ballarat road I’ve seen the terrible accident and it should never have happened and I’ve also witnessed so many near miss accidents something needs to be done

There IS going to be a serious accident at the corner of Ballarat Road and Rippon Road or George Street, during Hamilton's peak hour. It's only a matter of time. Please stop the traffic there, before someone is hurt or killed.

Traffic lights needed for everyone's safety.

This is needed I live on Ballarat rd I see children struggle to get across the road as well as very congested traffic. lights would improve traffic flow and safety for pedestrians very much needed

we need these traffic lights.

We need traffic lights as soon as possible.

This is something we’ve needed for years! So many accidents could have been avoided!

Yea they need one

Traffic lights at this intersection would make it alot safer for everyone. Especially children and elderly people in that area. And for traffic entering from Rippon road on both sides of Ballarat road.

This intersection gives me anxiety! Traffic lights would make a world of difference!

Ballarat Rd has become a dangerous road & since the trucks are back it is even worse. A race track. There is so much traffic on that road the last few years & getting worse. Don’t wait for someone to be killed. Drivers drive straight out from the tennis court corner Rippon Rd. It is only a give way & not a stop sign.

Long overdue

This absolutely needs to happen. Those who can’t work out why, don’t use the roads in question.

This is a bad intersection at the best of times and worse at school time ⏲️

Very dangerous intersection needs lights before fatalities occur.

Prioritise child safety.

Long overdue , very dangerous intersection

I have seen many close calls at this intersection and I have also unfortunately seen collisions. This intersection and the intersection further up near Hillier Lane both need Traffic lights and or roundabouts, this should have been done many years ago.
