Special to the Herald Times
Government logic strikes again. I didn’t know we had a pedestrian problem. Maybe I need reminded how many dollars it was to fix the stop light, with crossings, just 75 feet away from part of this project. I haven’t yet researched how they determine when these pedestrian projects are needed. Do they take surveys, like traffic?
