Razors Edge ★ Posted October 19, 2020 Share #1 Posted October 19, 2020 ...at a few of the road names near me. We still have a "Temporary Road" that is 20+ years old and legit roads feeding it from both ends. They should just choose one of those roads and use that name! We also have "New Road" which hasn't been "new" in DECADES! Name it something!!!!! Or the developed roads that run along the highway with hotels, restaurants, gas stations, etc. and is called "Frontage Road"??? GIVE THOSE A NAME!!!!

Ralphie ★ Posted October 19, 2020 Share #6 Posted October 19, 2020 I used to pass Proposed Road, and now it is Certain Road. All is right with the world with road names as far as I am concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maddmaxx ★ Posted October 19, 2020 Share #8 Posted October 19, 2020 Frankly my favorite is Goa Way or perhaps Wits End. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can suggest them to city hall, but I don't think they are listening. Got a pile of $100 bills I can wrap the suggestion around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dottleshead ★ Posted October 19, 2020 Share #10 Posted October 19, 2020 It's ok. Frontage Road is a cover for Temporary Road and New Road until they have time to mature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Fair Oaks has the old school mall, and Fair Lakes the strip malls. I rarely go to the old school mall, so the strip mall type of stores work better for me. I rarely go to either, but it is halfway to our SiL's house, so we will drop in there is needing to grab something on our way to visit. Luckily, they widened the road through there, so no traffic tie-ups in there anymore! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm 1/3rd of that! But remember when that was considered an "insult" and not a compliment? Crazy, eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
