Default Just a suggestion

When going to Sumter Landing from the south and going under Stillwater at the tunnel turn left and go into town that way much better than trying to turn left at Canal and the golf cart path. No lanes to cross and only one lane of car traffic to contend with.

It took me awhile to decipher what you meant, however, you're correct. The best and safest route to LSL from the south is to go through the tunnel under Stillwater and take a LEFT vs. a RIGHT hand turn as you exit the tunnel.

Agree....This gets you away from the 4 way stop by 2 Jays which has got to be one of the worst traffic control systems devised.

Depends on what part of town you are headed to.

Thank y'all for that info; I have always turned right out of the tunnel the few times I have been there and trying to turn left on Canal has been awful.

Thank you for that suggestion. A much safer alternative.
