To the editor:

Holy Moly. Haskell Avenue is finally open all the way south to County Road 458. We who live to the south have been put upon for a year or more. Both Haskell and Louisiana streets were closed at the same time for such a long time.

I did call once and talked with someone at the road department to ask why both roads were closed at the same time, and, without skipping a beat, was told “Oh, that was not our decision, it was the state’s decision to do that.” Ahh, no responsibility taken.

But now I am glad that the work is done and that Louisiana Street is now beautiful, but please put some signs at Michigan Street that say it replaces the old Louisiana extension south of 31st Street. Things are not clear when making a left turn onto Michigan Street from 31st Street.
