Having witnessed 2 incidents on Baris Manco due to speeding/ wreckless driving in the past few days, when are the authorities going to do something to enforce the 50k speed limit?. I guess the answer is probably sometime never. Crossing this road is like playing russian roulette with the traffic from motor bikes to concrete mixers. The tree planting looks very nice but it cut down the level off visibility, this week 2 cars have ended up in the lounge of a house fronting onto Baris Manco and a couple where almost mown down whilst crossing the road not to mention the increased noise. Baris Manco is the main road from Calis beach through to Gunlukbasi.

Have you asked them ?

It's nothing new sadly - I remember many a crash or vehicle in a building along Baris Mango in my five years there - it is exactly the wrong road to have speeding on, can't disagree there.

There are a lot of accidents on the corner where we live and we asked about getting speed bumps or some kind of speed deterrent put in. Apparently it is down to the council to make this decision and, if we understood correctly, it depends on how many accidents happen. Words fail me...surely several accidents so far this year ought to influence them???
