  • Thanks for including that, the pics are great. Lots of memories go with them and all the times of crossing the slides in their various stages of repair and disrepair!

  • Thanks, I sometimes get those agencies mixed up, TAMC seems to be the one for these projects.

    ...Weather related delays also affecting Holman Highway roundabout construction, I read they are running 2 months and more on completion.

  • Ipad not so easy to read on, but, this document history on Hwy 1 w/ pics is a treasure trove of info- thanks for sharing it.

    • I use an iPad for everything - but it is an iPad Pro, which has a much larger screen. I also have a detachable keyboard. I love it.
