My hero: a member of the Corporation of Hamilton directs traffic while a technician worked to restore malfunctioning lights at the junction of Church Street and Burnaby Street last month (Photograph by Akil Simmons)
Dear Sir,
Give that man a whistle! The Corporation of Hamilton “technician” did an excellent job directing traffic on October 17 at lunchtime in Hamilton when the traffic lights went out.
I had a front-row driver’s seat to his wonderful, clear hand signals, big smile and efficient directions.
It was fun to watch. Thank you for stepping up and doing a great job that is probably not on your job requirements.
A job worthy of New York or Paris.
