Goderich residents have most likely seen the new overhead lighting system on Bayfield Road at the intersection of Bennett Street East. This busy pedestrian crossing has been at this location for a long time due to the high number of students and residents that need to cross Bayfield Road. This new lighting system is a welcome addition to increase visibility and enhance public safety.
Police spoke to crossing guard Sheila Donatis who has been working as a guard for over 30 years in the Town of Goderich, helping countless people cross roadways safely. Donatis is happy to see the new system which she feels will prompt drivers to obey the flashing lights and her handheld stop sign, creating a safer location for people to cross.
