If anyone’s fed up with the safety nightmare that is Eureka’s 4th & 5th street corridor, you can sign CRTP’s petition to Caltrans to fix it. Currently they’re content to …

And we wonder why (some, most) lawmakers are out of touch with reality. This is an eye opener, and it’s nothing new?! Wow.

The roundabout is gone, now it’s just people not bothering to stop. I guess to some drivers, the stop signs are invisible?

The number of STAA trucks sneaking now is virtually zero compared with the constant stream of them that will roar through Humboldt once this project is complete. Get your head …

See my comment below.

Bike infrastructure has the added benefit of encouraging drivers to slow down and pay attention, making everyone safer.Oh, and bike lanes and bulbouts decrease the distance and time pedestrians have …

This was a stupid, pointless project when it was proposed, it is a stupid, pointless project now, and it will be a stupid, pointless project if and when it is …

Qualifier “borders” and positive claim “distance precludes” impeach your own assertion.Have a nice day, friend.

“If you can’t drink their booze, take their money, sleep with their women, and then vote against ‘em you don’t belong in politics.”—Jess Unruh, Speaker of the California Assembly in …

Citizen participation in overseeing government actiities is not “beyond the scope” of any citizen’s ability. The whole point of the civil grand jury is that it is NOT PROFESSIONAL

It borders on criminal that the grand jury does not pay a per diem or mileage, as distance precludes citizens from the northern and southern reaches of the county from …

These kinds of parties are pretty common. That weird furry party for the humane society recently was pretty odd though.

Seems strange…bump outs going in, new pavement going on. I see bike improvements coming.Less than one percent use bicycles. Why is so much street getting given to them, like the …

What did the Caltrans rep say about not giving the 45 days notice?

Never read a press release quite like this one.

Referring this matter to the Grand Jury is a huge cop out. The grand jury members are not professionals. This is way beyond their scope of responsibilities.

There is no need for this. I travel this road daily and see all kinds of large trucks come through there. There are no problems so leave it alone. These …

gross.

Protecting the birds! Good ol’ CalTrans. What’s essential for folks to understand about this project is not just that it threatens one of the tiny, precious old-growth redwood groves left …

Congrats to everyone involved!
