Letter: Still the solution: Move the bridge
Rumor has it someone has put a billboard sign on I-90 westbound out of Chicago that reads "Caution: Low Bridge Clearance Ahead 23 Miles." This should do the trick.
When will Long Grove leadership realize their sacred bridge is like brown shoes at a tuxedo convention: it doesn't match. "Wet Paint" signs still don't keep fingerprints off the bench and logical drivers of trucks - even seeing the warning signs - can't comprehend that any city/village would have such an outdated structure.
Maybe Long Grove is making bank on the free press on this topic and non-action, but I wouldn't put it on my resume.
Again, my offer of free ice cream when someone moves the bridge to the park still stands.
