Halifax road crew does what it can

HALIFAX — So they widened the roads a little? Big deal.

Steve Moore: What happens when you meet a fully loaded town truck with a fixed plow and wing out? You move without backing up or driving into a ditch.

Yes, the gravel they have used on some roads sucks. If you want to complain, complain to the vendor for inadequate materials. The guys on the town road crew are doing what they can with what they have to work with.

Also, yes, mud season sucks. You should have taken that into account before you decided to live in the location you do. I know my husband and I did.

Plan ahead a little next time. We as people can do only so much with what Mother Nature throws at us. We can't control the seasons.

Thanks to the Highway Department for trying to do their best.
