Something else that needs attention IMO is all the sinking cobblestone around the WAWA gas station on 44, and on the street behind it that leads to the Medical plazas.

I’ve never seen one soul using those sidewalks. Why are they needed?

They also widened the road, made a shopping mall out of a gigantic divot in the earth and are doing bridge work. I would give them extremely high grades for their efforts and execution. Your outlook may vary.

It’s going to be fantastic when they finish. All during a Pandemic too! Bravo to the main contractor.

If the local government accepts federal money to pay for a project, then they are required to conform to federal guidelines. Federal guidelines require sidewalks and bike lanes on all roads.

Has anyone taken the SE 192nd loop that by passes Bellview to the East?
There's miles and miles of bike paths running parrel with 192nd Loop and I never
seen anyone on them in all the years I drove that way.

As a taxpayer, you can take your federal guidelines and stick it where the sun doesn't shine.
