I am writing this letter as I am very upset, like many in our area, with the condition of the Arden Road. There is approximately a five-kilometre section of road that is in dire need of resurfacing. The section in question is the road heading to Tamworth from Cranberry Lake Road to the township line running up to the Stone Mills Township.
I understand that this has been on the township list of repairs for a few years now and it always seems to get bumped from the list. Well, folks, enough is enough! Shame on you, Township Council, for letting this road get to the point it is at today. What a mess! There are many people using this road daily to get to and from work, shopping, doctor's appointments, etc. Not to mention the tourists, cottagers, cyclists and motorcycles that travel this daily to admire this beautiful area. Unless this road gets some real repair and not just holes filled over and over and over again, these folks will quit coming to this area and find an alternate route and area to spend their time and money. Our vehicles are taking a pounding, but of course, you do not have to be concerned with the repairs, we do!
I say to council ... please get this back on your priority list for the spring of 2016 and leave it there! Stop sending our tax dollars to other areas and start spending some in this area.
