48th and O-No!

By: Mr. Wilson on March 6, 2006
I suppose the big news in Lincoln today is closing of 48th & O and the related re-routing of traffic. I'm sure glad I don't regularly need to pass through that area. It doesn't sound like much fun at all. On the plus side, I hope the new and improved O Street means a new and improved area all around. The new shopping area on the southeast corner will get things started, and I suspect other developments will follow. At least there are other ways to get around the 48th and O area. Imagine the troubles that'll be caused by the closing of the O Street viaduct leading to and from West O. There aren't many ways to get across the tracks to West Lincoln. I'm especially concerned for the "limited mobility" folks who can't easily add a couple miles to their journey.

boy am I glad I don’t have to take that route anymore.  It always seemed if 40th or 56th was closed, 48th became super busy.
