Two-car crash at McKoy St crossing

THE notorious McKoy Street intersection at the Hume Highway has been the scene of another crash.

Emergency services responded to a two-car crash at the dangerous intersection last night.

The incident occurred about 5.50pm — a time in which the new speed limit of 80km/h was in use.

Both cars were damaged but it’s believed no one was injured.

The intersection has been the scene of dozens of crashes with more than 30 people injured since 2007.

VicRoads implemented the new 80km/h speed zones, which are in use between 7am and 7pm, in March in a bid to reduce the risk of crashes.

Wodonga Sgt Cameron Roberts said at the time the changes were made it was only “dumb luck” there hadn’t be a death.

VicRoads is investigating long-term solutions to the problem-plagued area with Wodonga Council.
