The Ministry has officially confirmed that the center divider barriers will be installed along the requested stretch of the Malahat. This outcome ensures a safer commute for everyone who travels this highway. I appreciate your commitment to this safety initiative and will remain attentive as the construction process begins.

I, the undersigned, am asking that the HONOURABLE BLAIR LEKSTROM, British Columbia's Minster or Transportation and Infrastructure, to authorize and commence the installation of road divider barriers forthwith on the Transcanada Highway from Goldtream Park to Mill Bay, British Columbia. There have been enough fatalities on this stretch of road and we do not want to see another one.

We drive from Parksville to Victoria at least 10-15 times a year. The Malahat needs barriers

Let's install photo radar cams and put stop to the drivers that thin they are on a race track. I appears that the RCMP can't do the job.

This is a main highway with extremely high traffic volume, obviously you have never had to drive it in dark, unsuitable weather condition! Try it you might not like it.

My family drives this stretch everyday to get to work. Its terrifying when people try to pass on those blind corners. Barriers are a no brainer.

Every time it rains or snows I hold my breath driving through there. Just put the concrete blocks in already.
