To the editor:
Concerning the Division Street bridge and large truck traffic: Install a camera system similar to what many cities do to catch red-light runners. Ticket any offending trucks by mail, as cities do. Put up signs warning trucks they will be ticketed. Double fines since it is a “work area.” Maybe we can add “Reckless Driving” points on the driver’s license since driving over a prohibited bridge is pretty reckless. If we make the bridge one-lane during this interim repair period and install a one-way traffic stop light on the bridge, the cameras could be linked to the stoplight and each camera would only operate when traffic was crossing the bridge in that camera’s direction.
