Recently saw a dump truck pulling a trailer with a full size back hoe exiting at 7:15 am. If this was happening on the main artery in your Village of residence...I wonder what your thoughts would be?

Living in Lake Deaton and frequently going to Pinellas Plaza, I wouldn't even consider taking Pinellas Place as a "shortcut". It is minimally shorter in distance than 466A, but the bulk of the trip would be at 30 mph, with lots of side streets and golf cart crossings, instead of 45 MPH on 466 A. You lose a traffic light, but pick up an extra gate. I would classify that route as a "longcut"
