Quincy Traffic

I realize it may be awkward to try and talk to a street intersection, but awkward has never stopped me in the past and isn't about to stop me now. I have some thoughts for 36th and Broadway in Quincy.

If you are the owner of a driver's license, not a drive goes by without something occurring that just makes you shake you head and wonder.

The City of Quincy has lost 10 years of downtown visitors and 10 years is too long. A downtown train station is needed and should be a priority in future planning.

The apparent options are for a light to be installed or the development of a round-a-bout to streamline the traffic through that intersection. In my mind, a roundabout would be a disaster,

If you drive through the Quincy intersection of 30th and Wismann Lane you might want to re-adjust your route.

Would you know what to do if you were involved in an “Active Shooter” situation?  Most of us wouldn't.  With that in mind, in hopes you never are involved in a situation like that, the Quincy Regional Crime Stoppers are presenting an informational program this Monday night.

The Memorial bridge was closed yesterday and remain closed until further notice. That closure has forced the Bayview Bridge to become a two way bridge for the time being.

Whatever happened to the good ol' days when you could get in your car and just go for a drive. There is no real reason to, but to enjoy being behind the wheel. Are those days gone? They just might be.

Sure makes you wonder just how many drivers are really out there driving without insurance doesn't it?

For months now the intersection of 12th and Maine Streets in Quincy has featured a four way stop. That will all change today.
