Did you hear the one about New Albany's tolling preparedness plan?


Neither did we.

Apocalypse WOW: Pat McLaughlin thinks toll evaders will stop to shop in New Albany. Jeff Gahan doesn't return calls. Welcome to tolling preparedness, New Albany-style.


It would help to ask your district council representative (and all three at-large representatives), "What are we doing to prepare for tolling?"

If the answer is, "the mayor's taking care of it behind closed doors," then perhaps you must also start thinking about a new councilman.

I know I am.

Sorry about that; I didn't see yesterday's notification. First and foremost would be two way streets to remove the one-way speedways through town and spread the traffic. If pass-throughout sense an easy way, they'll all try to use it. If there stands to be congestion, then we must use it to our benefit -- besides, two-way streets have numerous other benefits.
