If ODOT and the railroads ever carry out their plans for the Queen Avenue crossing in Albany, I’ll quit writing about it. But the improvement project at the crossing keeps slipping further back in time.
Now that Albany has a city law calling for a monthly street maintenance fee, though not yet the fee itself, let’s review a couple of things that law says.
Friday found the bike and me pretty much in the middle of Albany’s retail commercial center, enjoying the new asphalt pavement on Clay Street and 14th Avenue.
This story is about a pothole. Not just any pothole. Not the kind of pothole which Albany’s older local streets have in abundance. This pothole is special, or it seems that way.
Still on the pothole beat: hospital street
Albany General Hospital lies in the 1000 block between Sixth and Seventh avenues. Seventh is a fine street with good pavement, so how come there are big craters in Sixth?
