Regarding construction on South Walnut Street- at the intersection with second street, motorists are trying to go north from both lanes south of second into the single lane north of second street. These lanes need to be clearly marked during construction as typically the far left lane is for left turns only. Please make it easier for people to know where to go. Thanks.
Hi, I ride my bike to work from Tamarron to North Walnut. Usually I take the bike route, including the Grimshaw Trail beside the train tracks, then cross the Bypass to Eastgate. Because of the construction on the Bypass, Eastgate is now closed, but there is no warning until you actually get there, which is very inconvenient. I also don't know how else I can get to my destination without either going all way down to 3rd, which would add about 10 minutes to my trip in each direction, or take my life into my hands by riding on 10th (I know, I know, the spandex brigade do this, but at 49 I've moved beyond the "live fast, die young, leave a good looking corpse" philosophy). What I would like to know, is how can I get to work safely if I can't go from the Grimshaw Trail over to Eastgate, and why do you not warn cyclists a little earlier (like say at Pete Ellis Drive and maybe Union Street on the other side) that Eastgate is closed so we don't waste even more time heading in that direction? Thanks, Gerry Matthews
