Why do we have so many handicapped parking spaces? Why can't farmers put up signs telling us what crops are being grown? What's that building behind PF Chang's? Are we getting a restaurant out on 178 near Masterson? Can I drive here on a foreign license? Why is the fire department wasting taxpayer money? What's the new Beach Park skate park going to look like? What are those black cables you see taped across the street? What are those flashing blue lights you can see from the bluffs? What's being built on the corner of Alfred Harrell and 178?

What's up with the poorly designed Mall View Road?
Q: Can you tell me who is responsible for maintaining Mall View Road between Mount Vernon Avenue and Fashion Place? It seems it was poorly designed from the start, going from two lanes to one and then back to two. Now with all the fast food places there and the center lane paint nearly gone it's dangerous. Now with the proposed expansion that’s going to be built, it will only get worse. Do you know if plans are in the works to make it two lanes all the way through to the East Hills Mall? 4 comments from 4 users

Go to Del Taco and then try to turn left headed to Walmart. And good luck. That's got to be the worst cluster(nevermind) I've ever seen. It's a nightmare. You're much better off going down to the next light and going in the back way. I just keep forgetting to do it. posted by

If it is privately owned (designed and maintained), wouldn't that make them liable for any damages from accident caused by the poor planning? posted by

It wasn't a plan, it was just another short sighted capitulation to developer interests. posted by
