Be careful what you ask for – you just might get it. Ask the good folks on Holtby and Crosby how that works out.

BURLINGTON, ON June 17, 2011 – Holtby and Crosby Streets run south from Caroline down to New Street. They were built about 50 years ago and had never had any re-surfacing or upgrades done and they were in pretty rough shape. Years of complaining and the city finally got around to putting these two streets on the list and work was scheduled for the spring. More than $900,000 was budgeted fir the work.

Getting in and out of the driveway when the street is under construction is a challenge.  Holtby residents struggle with this one.

And now the work is getting done. And the good people of Holtby are basically landlocked. They can’t get their cars into the driveways and walking down the street is a bit of a challenge. But they will soon have a nice new shiny road. Your tax dollars are at work.

For those on Crosby Street – you’re next.
