Council transport engineering and road safety team leader Hjarne Poulsen gave The Star a list of the 10 Dunedin intersections ranked in order of priority for safety improvements. The results of past improvements were evident at intersections such as the Hillside Rd-King Edward St intersection, which was no longer on New Zealand’s top-50 list of worst intersections following safety upgrades in 2016. She was surprised it was Dunedin’s worst intersection despite being involved in a crash there herself. Southern district road policing manager inspector Amelia Steel said Dunedin intersections were dangerous locations for road users when drivers were not paying attention.
