Couldn't agree more. With the incline of Hale road in places greater than 10% the road can't be suitable for heavy vehicles. The noise they make going down the hill should be considered noise polution.

Absolutely agree. Extreme noise, vibrations in homes are frightening and over time liable to cause structural damage to houses, dangerous and cause congestion on roads, safety issue with school children.

The trucks are travelling at all hrs of the day and are travelling too fast on occasion with loads that are unable to stop quickly should there be children crossing the road not paying attention. Very bad combination.

Ban the trucks. to much traffic. the road can't be designed for frequent heavy haulage use. the vast majority exceed the speed limit. But most importantly heavy haulage and two school zones is a disaster waiting to happen.

I can't believe these trucks are using hale road, it's only a matter of time before we'll be talking about an accident or something worse,my house shakes every time one of them goes past & they are only metres away from my front garden.im sure they do not keep to the speed limit! BAN THE TRUCKS!!!!!

Also many trucks exceed the speed limit including down the hill towards traffic lights at Weaponess and Hale intersection.

This is common sense - Scarborough Beach Road is designed for heavy loads, Hale Road is not.

Trucks on Hale Road threat the lives of the local residents and students.Hale road is residential and trucks should be stopped using the road

The amount of pollution is very concerning especially and medical scientists are now publishing the serious results of exposure to polluted air, most serious being lung cancer and Alzheimers.

Hale Road is a residential area and should not be used as a short cut to Osborne Park for heavy haulage trucks. Truck numbers have increased over the past year or so making this road very dangerous for the many children attending schools in this area.

There should be no big trucks on Hale Rd WEMBLEY Downs/Churchlands as there are two big schools in the street and a steep hill.

We definitely need to take the trucks off Hale Road, a lot of them struggle up the hill and it is out the front of our house that they will often stop and have to start again to make it up the hill. Also because Hale Rd is a steep hill they race down the hill towards Weaponess Road, we only need one to loose control to create an absolute disaster. I also cannot believe that these trucks are allowed to travel through an area with so many school children. If we are out the front of the house we cannot carry on a conversation because the trucks are so loud, and we are woken up early in the morning once the trucks start running in earnest.

Agreed! They are driving pretty fast at around 10-1030pm every night.

Way too many trucks using this road especially given there are two major schools on it

Hale Road, I believe,is incapable of handling the present amount of heavy trucks, lorries and container carriers. They all pose a massive threat to fellow road users and pedestrians. I have witness several near misses. These drivers obviously have schedules to keep and it's scary to be in their line of fire.
