The Town and Granite Construction are doing a great job.

Traffic problems have been well managed and there has been minimal disruption.

The project work looks to be very well done and is proceeding quickly.

Thanks to all concerned.

Nice to see a job proceed according to plan.

I remember reading that mid-way through one lane of Marsh would open to westbound traffic. Is that still going to happen?

About time they fix this area. That stop light area where Marsh meets Middlefield where that motorcycle cop always hides behind a private property fence to give out tickets should help that whole scenario out and help poor motorists who get baited into tickets. It bottle necks everything into one spot causing back up on Middlefield going into Atherton and baiting motorists into getting tickets.About time..

I'm curious: how do motorists "get baited into tickets" at Marsh & Middlefield?

Don't they have to willingly violate the California Vehicle Code first?

Or is the "hiding" police officer somehow baiting them into breaking the law?
