I hope the “patching/resurfacing” is better than what they have been doing!!! I huge waste of money. It would be better to use the asphalt in one continuous stretch instead of doing a few feet at a time. The beginning and ending of the “patch” is more like a SPEED BUMP!!! I guess it’s too hard to feather out the ends.
Has anyone been on OldTerryville road lately in Martha, yes also Lawrence county, there’s a rut down the middle of the road because of the ditch , why can’t you all clean out the ditches stupid only need a shovel , in certain places ,
the county need to help the city out on some of there roads we pay county taxes also in fact probably carry a lot of the freight come on Rick you represent us also
