Meeting with new CP Commanding Officer - on cyclists and red lights, and new lower loop traffic lights
This evening Christy, Jody and I got to meet and talk to the new CP Precinct Commanding Officer Captain Peter Andrea at the Central Park Precinct Community Council meeting.

He seemed to be open to having a dialogue in the future should any specific issues arise.
