The fact that this road should have been constructed ten years ago has little bearing on the matâ€" ter. It is now actually planned, and we can look forward to it beâ€" coming a reality one of these days. There is however, some small relief in sight at least from the traffic angle, and if the traffic is reduced, parking just might imâ€" prove a little.

This procedure of not calling out the streets is probably all right where residents are conâ€" cerned. They know the various stops and when they want to get off. How about the visitors to the community. They certainly don‘t know the streets, except possibly by name. This might be someâ€" thing for the P.U.C. to give some consideration to. JHS.
