Crosswalk Construction Continues Along Boulevard

New crosswalks were put in at the Boulevard intersections of Hamilton and Franklin on Monday.

Will be happy when it's finished. The Blvd businesses have felt it terribly. The parking problem is bad enough...then to arrive at work to discover the road is closed. I know for myself I could have changed my hours for this week if I had some kind of warning. I do want to comment though that you are doing a great job and I enjoy receiving daily e.mails from patch!
