Dear Editor,
The recent letter regarding "Common sense needed for Highway 90" again seems to use common sense as it best fits the writer's opinion. This is the second letter that extols the virtues of a bridge across Blackwater River to connect to Berryhill. It is also the second letter that doesn't address how does one get to the new bridge that comes across Blackwater to connect to the "new" Berryhill conduit. Surely they wouldn't continue to use just the two lanes that exist now. Oh, "we'll four lane all the way from 87." Where do you put the four lanes thru East Milton to the new bridge? The already existing traffic problems thru East Milton are ignored with this approach. Further, one of the letters went on to say it doesn't change the traffic pattern on that portion of the road, yet the traffic count will increase and bring along the attendant issues associated with that.
