A runaway lane has been

trucks transfer into low gear
at the top of the hill.

Department of Highways
personnel have been
working since last year to
pian some sort of runaway
lane at the terminal to stop
trucks that lose control
coming down the hill.

In a one week period last
fall three trucks had their
brakes fail coming into the
terminal and one truck
driver had to drive his truck
into a concrete support to

for Horseshoe Bay

bring if toa halt.

Johnson says that while a
runaway lane has been
designed for the terminal the
Highways personnel are still
not too happy with it.

He said such a lane would
be “very expensive” as
“there has never been
anything of the size built in
the province before.”

Johnson says the concern
is with slowing the truck
down without killing the
driver in doing so.

He said he met with
Highways representatives
about two weeks ago and
they are still looking at
various proposals to solve
the problem.

He says they now agree

that a runaway lane may nol
be the answer.

Johnson says he is in
favour of setting up a booth
or a truck scale at the top of
the hill to force truck drivers
to stop and change into low
gear.

Having the trucks stop at

the top would solve the
problem, Johnson said.
Truckers are currently

required to stop and check
the brakes on their trucks at
the top of the hill but it is felt
many truck drivers do not do
this.

Controlling runaway
trucks at Horseshoe Bay “is
still a fairly hot subject,”
Johnson says and he adds
that the pressure is on to find
a solution soon.
