Tedder road has more traffic than all those other streets combined because of the prison. And only got a patch job that road beats all of our vehicles to pieces and with what we get paid some cant afford to fix them I know several people who have busted tires in the potholes on Tedder rd why wasn’t it priority
That is real nice. That happened quickly. It took over a year to get one paved in Walnut Hill and they cut down every beautiful OLD shade tree on one side of the road and didn’t have to do that. Most of the very few people here didn’t want it done in the first place. It is nice not to have our vehicles all muddy, but that is all. Sad mostly for lack of shade to walk in, and for now having a place for logging trucks to race through.. Saw one right away. Will tear up the work in no time. They should be forbidden to cut through here just to cut off a mile. They should not be allowed on any small paved road, especially one just freshly paved.
Reinfroe street was a waste of money as it doesn’t apear and isn’t really used as a street but rather business access driveway. They even just now installed signs on it. I think the town should have just deeded that to the business owners there.
Awesome! That should make things much better for driving in those areas.,
