Two intersections that are considered dangerous in Nickel Belt are getting some added safety measures.

The intersection of Southview Drive and Highway 17/69 bypass is one where a number of fatal collisions have happened, most recently in October of last year one person was killed in a two car crash.

That intersection will get an overhead flashing beacon.

The Highway 17 and Municipal Road 4 intersection will get a traffic signal light.

Both will be installed this Fall.

Nickel Belt MPP France Gelinas says it’s great news for Nickel Belt and that keeping residents safe is always a priority.
