NEXT?
I’m sure on your new commute route via Amity Road you have crossed this bridge right? You might not have noticed it with the overgrowth of vegetation, but it is there, next to the Brittany Woodcastle entrance (86th street). It appears to be an old concrete bridge, I didn’t go down into the ditch/stream to look further. As you recall from previous posts and TV news pieces, the Barry Road Bridge was closed due to overweight loads on the bridge. The Barry Road Bridge is posted for 15 tons…Amity is 13 tons. Could this be the next target for Councilmen Ford and Johnson and the KCMO Department of Public Works?

So is that it? Has the Mayor and Aldermen exhausted all they can do? Are we supposed to just go away and accept this?
I guess the good news is that we have the Community Center on the west side. (It'd be nice to see the same kind of effort to galvanize outrage on the bridge as there was on closing the center)
Also, it's disappointing, if true, the kind of comments said by at least one man on the East side that West side folks should stop whining about this and that it was a great day when they closed the bridge.
Maybe the maximum management skill of our Westside alderman is just to redecorate the community center. Wondered what sort of management skills are mayor really has or was it all fluff during election time. There's the once-a-year-community-wide-clean-up management, then there is going-head-to-head-with-Kansas-City management. Hope our mayor has the b---s to take on the later and do the job he was elected for.
