Default Back Up

The back up at Colony crossing is twofold. One way goes to the only shopping area on the southside the other goes to the tunnel and Colony Rec center. Very few people use the other crossing on 466A down by the new assisted living site. Actually if your not in a HURRY that's a nice ride to the other side you even drive along the golf course for a while. There are only 2 tunnels crossing 466, two tunnels crossing 466A, and one bridge crossing Rt 441. As for a street legal they have a right to be on the road. Are they slower then the car or truck yes but they belong there. As for a walker or runner SLOW down when you pass them. As for a bike there is a 3 foot law for them when you pass them. That includes the trailer you might be towing. I had a trailer being towed damn near take me out on BuennaVista Blvd. the other morning had to go onto the grass as not to get knocked off. SLOW down and be kind to each other and we WILL stay the Friendliest Home Town. JMO
