Letter: I support Ellis Street overpass (July 28)

I want to state my support for the Ellis Street overpass.

The traffic situation at Cleveland, Country Club, Gateway and the train tracks has become a big-city type of nightmare. I own an in-home child care business that provides transport to and from schools, and I use the intersection often each day. I fear for the safety of the children in my care, and myself, each time I drive through the area. Thoughtless and impatient drivers put our lives at risk.

I applaud the city for coming up with the overpass idea. I believe it to be the most cost effective, and least intrusive way to ease the problems at the intersection. Can’t wait until it’s completed.
