To the editor:

The city staff members who want to reduce a section of Kasold Drive from two current lanes to one lane each direction evidently don’t ever travel on Kasold Drive to see how busy that street can be with traffic. I travel Kasold Drive many times, as many other drivers do, to get from the north side of town to the south side of town. Please leave Kasold Drive as it is now.

I don’t understand why any street that our tax money had been used to construct two lanes for traffic would need to go back and spend more money to change back to one lane in each direction. And we sure don’t need another roundabout at the Kasold and Harvard Road intersection. As for the bike lanes, why do the bicycle riders need that one stretch of lanes to ride in when they ride on other streets all the time and eventually the riders would have to get back on the current streets?

Please spend that money that is planned for the lane reduction and resurface Kasold Drive from Sixth Street to Bob Billings Parkway and construct and pave Queens Road. Please save our tax dollars and don’t make the lane changes.
