But never in 2010. While not wishing to look a gift horse in the mouth, I really feel sorry for those long-suffer- ing souls living between Westlawn Crescent and Winlane Drive. Their sec- tion of street would make a good test track for Ford. And it’s been this way for years. Sure, works depart- ment employees do their usual patch-ups every spring and fall but this band-aid treatment only Try criss-crossing from house-to-house while carrying a 50-pound load of Sun-Tribunes and you’ll know what I mean. It's Russian roulette. This, over the past 20 years has been our prob- lem â€" too much traffic. And we're not alone. How- ever. in all honesty, the sit- uation’s much less aggra- vating with the improved west end exit/ entrance. Still, between 7 and 9 am. and 4 and 6 pm, our road could double for the Don Valley Parkway. But I haven't com- plained. Well, maybe to my neighbours but not to persons in authority. For I've long been aware that, sooner or later, our time would come. Posâ€" sibly after I'd packed up personal belongings and headed for Parkview Vil- lage. To say the announce- ment came as a surprise would be an under-state- ment. It was a shock. For this section of street, at least the road portion, is in pretty good shape, no treacherous crevices or pot holes. In fact, it’s mostly clear-sailing for short-cut motorists who prefer this neighborhood route to the red light dis- trict along Main Street. Weather’s’ always a factor when it comes to construction. The re-constructed section will extend from Westlawn Crescent through to Ninth Line North, 3 distance that includes 27 homes, 46 residents, six dogs, four cats and one canary. Work should begin in June and end in Septem- ber, weather permitting. t will be Christmas in September for some residents of Rupert Avenue in Stouf‘fville. The gift is a brand new street, all wrapped in ribbons of curbs, water mains, sewers and sideâ€" walks. Favourite shortcut getting facelift As one resident put it: The first will be worst; the better will come later. But not on this night. My northside neigh- bours, those who were there, seemed pleased to share this service. I was ecstatic. For, when com- pleted. I'll be able to cycle my age-old CCM a mile- a-minute from the Ninth Line through to Glengall Lane, fearing nothing more than a wayward dog or cat. Messrs. Bauman. Doran and Parry admitâ€" ted to anticipated grit and grime but said noth- ing of subsidized dusting service. The only perceived challenge I could envi- sion was the positioning of sidewalks. In some areas, this has posed a capricious problem, even to the point of prompting pugilism. But what about dust and dirt? Will Molly Maid assistance be provided? While difficult to mea- sure enthusiasm, all with whom I spoke appeared pleased with what they heard. Project managers Troy Bauman and Martin Doran along with plan- ning chief Tom Parry, appeared open and hon- est, diminishing risks of tossed chairs, eggs and tomatoes. But let me give credit where credit is due. In a commendable stroke of public relations, the town saw fit to circulate notices to each and every house- holder, inviting interested persons to attend a pub- lic information meeting Feb. 11. In addition, ward councilor Suzanne Hil- ton contacted many by phone. Twelve responded. I was one. lasts a few weeks. Then, it's back to what residents regard as normal.
