Sound Barrier Possible Reality For St. George Residents

Peace and quiet may be coming to residents of the Kennedy Court subdivision.


MLA Rick Doucet bringing the issue to the Transportation Minister about having a sound barrier erected to keep the noise at a minimum from the nearby Highway 1.

Mayor of St. George Sharon Tucker tells Tide News the CAO has had discussions with Dexter Construction, and Dexter's has offered 3 choices to residents.

Tucker says, to her knowledge, the options are trees and shrubs, a berm made by displacing soil, or a privacy sound deflection fence like that at Dominion Hill.

No word yet on when the barrier will become reality.
