Thursday wrap

By 5:00 P.M. all paving work on Sanger Avenue had ceased and, for the first time in many weeks, there were no traffic tie-ups (or even slow-downs) at all. The residents of Sanger Avenue must be ecstatic: both the North- and Southbound lanes in front of their houses are SMOOTH all the way to "Roc's" Dairy Creme. Although this was just the first layer of ashphalt, and several more inches will be needed to bring the roadway up to drain and curbing heights, it appeared that most if not all properties had some sort of driveway access and - best of all - just think! no more trucks bumping all night long and NO MORE DUST!!!!

Brick paver installation proceeded southward from Main Street and onto Sanger Avenue near Mrs. Woodhouse's residence and a TIOGA crew was at the corner of Madison Street and Park Place but it could not be determined exactly what work they were doing.



Construction of a fabulous new piece of equipment is under way at the Skate Park.





There is still no sign of driveway paving at the new library and landscaping seems to have either slowed or come to a standstill, although a basic curved pathway has been outlined and what could be a fish pond has been constructed just outside the great window in the book room.
