23.01.2022 Within a week Greenhill CFS have responded to two MVA’s (Motor Vehicle Accident) which were caused by people crossing into on coming lanes. We would like to remind people driving into the hills that the road is narrow and has a single lane for upwards traffic and same for downhill traffic as we get into the wetter season the roads will become slippery so we ask everyone to please drive to the condition and drive safely. Luckily at both accidents no one was seriously hurt just minor cuts and grazes
