Sidewalks

When I went to the Carrboro Farmers' Market on Saturday, I parked on the opposite side of the firehouse and walked back to the Market. A sidewalk is being built along the street more or less on the western side of the firehouse.

Normally, I would say just bravo!

But look at it, and ask yourself who came first and who should have priority - people or cars? I defy anyone to predict that people will actually walk this serpentine route.

Imagine if the sidewalk were put in place first, and the cars and parking had to work their way around it! That's where I think the priority ought to be!
