There are two kinds of avenues, those that have traffic problems and those that don’t. Bridge Avenue does have traffic problems.

A possible ease of the problem is to construct an on-off exit on Interstate 90 to tie into an extension of Y.H. Hanson Avenue — thus a straight shot to and from business establishments plus the high school along Y.H. Hanson Avenue.

This would also open an avenue from the freeway to Hammer Road.

This just might help the powers decide on handling the proposed Kwik Trip location on Bridge Avenue.
