Unsung Heroes #285

Longtime Westporter and Saugatuck activist Carolanne Curry writes:

Life has not been easy for neighbors on Hiawatha Lane Extension. For 20 years we’ve fought a developer, to keep away his 187 “market rate” apartments.

And for the past year the Connecticut Department of Transportation has sent massive dump trucks, long tractor trailers and huge backhoes here, creating dangerous and damaging potholes.

After enduring this punishment for several months, today I found the potholes filled.

I don’t know who did it, or how.

But to the unsung hero out there: Our whole road says “thank you.”
