Commissionaire No Longer Required At Armdale

(Friday, July 7/06)-- HRM Traffic Services has reviewed the operation of the Armdale Rotary in light of the recent rule change from your-turn, my-turn, to motorists yielding to traffic already in the circle.

In light of the results, it has been decided that the peak-hour restriction within the traffic circle, where a Commissionaire is on duty from 4 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. week days, will be discontinued. This will allow traffic to follow completely around the circle during the afternoon peak like the rest of the day. The change becomes effective Monday, July 10th.

Traffic Services believes this action will help to provide the necessary interruption of the flow from Quinpool Road to allow the other traffic, particularly Chebucto Road, to have more gaps.
