> Subject: stoplights--who pays, who benefits?
> This is a quote from last week's Argonaut (June 18, 1997.) The report is on
> the opening of the Arby's/Sunset Mart/Conoco complex between Taylor and
> Lauder on South Main Street. The article quotes Jim Taylor and Dave Riggleman,
> managers of Circle K and Sunset Mart, respectively.
>
> [begin quote]
>
> Taylor said the Circle K has been in Moscow for around 25 years. During that
> time, the traffic has steadily grown heavier. He said,"Maybe this (new
> convenience store across the street) will force the city to put in a
> stoplight."
>
> Riggleman agreed, "If we beg and plead enough, hopefully the city will put in a
> stoplight at the intersection. We've been on them about it ever since we got
> the building permit."
>
> [end quote]
>
> On a related note, the crosswalk at the intersection has reappeared, sort of.
> There is still no sign and there are only two parallel lines crossing Main,
> none of the ladder rung cross-lines that are in most every other crosswalk in
> town.
