Fraser Highway has become danger zone

Editor, The News:

This letter is in reference to the stretch of Fraser Highway between Mt. Lehman Road and Bradner Road.

This highway has been under construction for a long time and has provided a great deal of nuisances, the worst being the inability to see in the evening.

There are no reflectors along the middle line, and there are no white lines at the edge of the road.

To add to this, there are no lampposts to provide light. With the winter weather (rain and especially fog), I feel that this poses a hazard to all traffic travelling on the highway and wish that something be done on this issue.

For two years I have been travelling on this highway and am always uneasy travelling after dark, due to blindness from oncoming traffic and the presence of large ditches on either side of the highway with no barrier.
