I agree, but you just know someone is going to screw things up for everybody else.

Like the 4-Way Stop!
Sure do like the 4-way stop across CR101. It has really slowed the auto traffic and has made the roads much safer. It used to be a real challenge to get across at Woodridge by car because by the time they got to there from 466, they were flying. (Had to be really scary for those with street legal carts going across there.) Not only that, but there are some sortof blind crossings out of the church parking lot, behind and in front of Crispers', and a couple of others that have led to near-misses.
Hope the powers-that-be will opt to keep it up, even after the tunnel reopens.

Any news about when the tunnel under CR101 will re-open.

As of late March 2011, I cannot wait until the tunnel re-opens! |

Not to be argumentative, but what does statement that mean?

I just recently heard a rumor that they've decided to not fix the tunnel and just leave the four-way stop. Anyone else heard anything?

In my opinion, the speed limit on CR 101 is too high. There are way too many people in cars who are too impatient to wait for a clear path. They just sail out into traffic, trying to navigate back and forth between Buffalo Ridge and Southern Trace. It's a dangerous area.

I also drive to the dog park up CR101 just about every day and also often see cars as well as golf carts do a rolling stop at the "temporary" golf cart street crossing. |

I sent an email to Janet Tutt's office yesterday (3/28/2011) concerning the tunnel status and the rumors that are circulating.
Here's the response I received: Mr. Mason, I received an engineering report today from the VCCDD regarding this issue. The VCCDD and Sumter County have not evaluated the report; however, I am sure we will do so this week. I have not heard the rumors; however, I know the VCCDD as well as Sumter County are interested in seeing the tunnel repaired and reopened as soon as possible. Bradley |

Thanks for doing that, Mike! And it's good to hear they're wanting to fix the tunnel.

Good to hear that they are planning on getting the tunnel back open.

I think it will make CR 101 much safer when the carts are using the tunnel again. It is such a congested area between 466 and Woodridge.
