Dear editor,
Bob Allen is right — as if ignoring the traffic problem will make it go away. I understand it will take time and money. However, there are smaller initiatives that could take place.
Like extending the left turning lanes by a few hundred feet for both Antioch Road and PJ Adams Parkway. This would take numerous cars off the 85 corridor.
The leadership of Crestview should show a little more compassion and enthusiasm in fixing the traffic issue; there is plenty that could be done. If money is the issue, work with the Florida Department of Transportation to secure state and federal grants or low-interest loans. They are available.
Either way, something needs to be done. Whoever cracks the code to get this deal done would be a hero to all the residents of Crestview.
