Where do they all come from?
Where are they all headed?
We followed them and we now
know most of them are simply passing through.
A bypass would be welcome by
them and by us.

Those who want to widen the downtown streets tell us that
most of these trucks are local or they are needing to come downtown because
they are making local stops. The cement mixer truck is obviously from the
south end of Goshen. This cement company is very close to the south city
limit and it could really save time and fuel by catching a US 33 and "Goshen
Bypass" to deliver its outlying orders. Who can say where the 151 Line
and Pie rig came from or where they plan to make their delivery. We expect
to see lots of them on the Toll Road. We hate to see them on our downtown
neighborhood streets. Unfortunately, Indiana hasn't built north-south toll
roads or freeways. As a result, every local highway gets more than its
comfortable share of these rigs.
