Message: [QUOTE="Cheriehoop, post: 3204130, member: 127"] Well that bridge has been there forever and tractor trailers,buses, commercial trucks have been on the road for ages. We now have dumb commercial drivers who just don’t read, don’t pay attention, and have no clue what size vehicle they are driving. As my grandmother used to say decades ago ‘if we can put a man on the moon, why can’t we figure this out’. Reducing the parkway to one lane each way is moronic and certainly not nearly a solution. The DOT’s solution is every bit as stupid as the ones suggested at the meeting that posters are mocking. They plan to reduce the lanes from 4 to 2 from the wedding bridge to the Butterfly garden. Will be fun seeing the number of accidents merging from 4 lanes to 2 along the parkway. Plus what still stops commercial trucks from going down the Parkway where it’s will still be 4 lanes and creating a mess where it’s reduced to 2 lanes? Nice move :rolleyes: by the state DOT leaving after presenting their plan and not taking part in any of the question/answer part from the actual residents. The state’s issues regarding bridges and commercial truck traffic isn’t restricted to Liverpool but is even more prevalent downstate - see the link below. [URL unfurl="true"]https://dailygazette.com/article/2019/09/18/editorial-new-yorkers-don-t-stop-complaining[/URL] One thing, how about NYS requiring updated and special requirements for commercial GPS alerting drivers to all the restrictions on roadways? No commercial license should be granted for travel within NYS without using a state approved updated GPS system. The county, thus Ryan McMahon, has to take some leadership role in a cooperative solution with the State instead of ignoring and washing their hands. [/QUOTE]
