Mayor Drops Idea of Recalling Council

By Submitted Article

Prince George, B.C.- , Mayor Colin Kinsley says he has decided he will not recall Council to take another look at the Dangerous Goods Route.

The Prince George Mayor had been contemplating a recall  because he had  concerns about dangerous goods travelling through the heart of the city along 20th and Victoria.  Those roads are part of  highway 16 and as Provincial highways,  dangerous goods cannot be banned from accessing them.  Kinsley  was considering  the recall to see if his Council colleagues would  reject the  route.

Mayor Kinsley  says he  hasn't been getting any calls from  truckers or others expressing concern about the  route, so he will let it  go.

He preferred using   Ferry and Queensway, two  routes which  truckers already  use.
