Op-Ed: Dangerous Left Turning At Anderson Overlook

By ROBERT BOURQUE

A couple of days ago I was heading down the hill following another vehicle. Upon reaching the first turn at Anderson Overlook, that vehicle tried to turn left into it, but needed to stop for oncoming vehicles. I stopped suddenly and the vehicle behind me slammed on its brakes, barely missing rear-ending me.

There are barricades preventing such dangerous turns near the high school, the hospital and the North Mesa roundabout.

But why are there not such barricades at the most dangerous of all – the Anderson Overlook. In fact, that entire S-turn should have them.
