As part of the economic stimulus program Hw74 from Whittier north has been repaved with a great new surface.
I hoped they would not grind the rumble strips in, or if so, the 5" ones imbedded in the white line.
I'm pretty sure however, that there are new rumble strips 5 inch outside the white line and a foot wide now, (like the ones that force you to ride the main road).
I don't know if I have right to speak up about it now, since I (we?) could have approached the responsible party before the fact, but for the few that use stretches of 74 it makes things a lot less safe.
ps: What ever became of the guy who crashed and got hurt bad because of the strips? Did it end up in court?
