Letter: Solution to Meyers traffic problems
Submitted by paula on Sun, 02/17/2019 - 10:34am
We are not unique in the fact that traffic apps have been showing shortcuts and causing headaches in neighborhoods, which have become freeways filled with people speeding through them to "save" up to a minute on their commute.
We do not have the luxury of support from our elected officials as other communities do, so we must come up with a solution ourselves.
Meyers is under siege every weekend with tourists trying to get home after a long weekend of enjoying what we sometimes take for granted and they are using traffic apps to try to get around the gridlock.
