[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in that area. There are safety reasons for building the bypass. That intersection has a higher accident rate due to no shoulder and limited visibility. Brookeville was the U.S. capitol for a day when the white house was burned by the British. I see no reason to tear down the historic homes. Then developers will build condos. There will be nothing left but overdevelopment in this county.[/quote] I live in Brookeville and drive through all the time. I have never seen or heard of an accident (I believe you!), but imo one of the main reasons is that there is no stop sign coming in from GA "on the left". Also, the speed limit is 50 coming in from Sunshine and while it's 20 coming in, few people slow down that much. I think speed bumps would help a lot, and they should have tried those before the bypass. But it's being built, so that ship has sailed. I still don't understand where the road will diverge and where it will come out. [/quote]
