WSJ: Trucks Are Clogging America’s Roads, Delivering Goods and Tearing up Yards

WSJ: Trucks Are Clogging America’s Roads, Delivering Goods and Tearing up Yards

Interesting to come across this article at a time when many of us have noticed an uptick in truck traffic in Westminster. I was pondering that much of the additional traffic was a result of more folks relying upon GPS directions – which often lack common sense – or are simply incorrect. As a consequence, for example, it leads trucks from one end of Main Street to the other – and not suggesting that truck drivers use Rte 140 instead.

“Trucks Are Clogging America’s Roads,” By David Harrison / Photographs by Kendrick Brinson for The Wall Street Journal January 26, 2022 - The surge won’t likely die down even once supply chain clogs ease, and the impact is falling heavily on neighborhood streets

ATLANTA—Trucks are taking over American roads, fueled by a rise in pandemic online shopping and disruptions to global supply chains.

Along the way they’re chewing up pavement, adding to congestion and infuriating residents, who must contend with 18-wheelers and delivery trucks as soon as they pull out of their driveways. They’re also causing headaches for state and local governments that face multibillion-dollar bills to finance road upkeep and expansions.

The thousands more delivery trucks on neighborhood streets and tractor trailers on interstate highways are solving one problem by creating another.

“Folks don’t like them in their neighborhoods,” said Seth Millican, a transportation expert at the Georgia Chamber of Commerce. “But they want the package they order from Amazon, and they want it in two days.”

Those strains converge in Atlanta’s Riverside neighborhood, home to Dustin Hillis, a city council member, who has spent years trying to keep tractor trailers off its residential streets.

“Not a week goes by that I don’t get complaints about trucks running over street signs, stop signs, electrical poles, cutting through people’s yards,” he said.

One of Mr. Hillis’s Riverside constituents, Don Penovi, has taken it upon himself to walk the streets, sometimes wearing a yellow vest, to guide errant trucks back to the highway and to call the city to replace destroyed street signs.

“It seems like it’s been getting worse the last six, eight months or so,” he said.

Our changing shopping habits have led to more trucks on the road. David Harrison from the Wall Street Journal has the story. https://soundcloud.com/thismorningshow/trucks-are-clogging-americas-roads-delivering-goods-and-tearing-up-yards

Send Me - Jenn Johnson feat. Chris Quilala

“Send Me” was the ‘Song of the Day’ in the contemporary service at Grace Lutheran Church on Sunday, February 6, 2022. It is certainly one of my favorites. Especially since I always associate it with one of my favorite Bible passages – and a favorite of many first responders: Isaiah 6 verses 1-8, especially verse 8: Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?” And I said, “Here am I. Send me!” Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?” And I said, “Here am I. Send me!”

"Send Me" Jenn Johnson feat. Chris Quilala. Premiered Sep 28, 2021. "Send Me" was written by Brandon Lake, Jenn Johnson, and Kari Jobe Carnes.

VERSE 1

If it’s bandaging the broken

Or washing filthy feet

Here I am Lord, send me

If it’s loving one another

Even when we don’t agree

Here I am Lord, send me

VERSE 2

If I’m poor or if I’m wealthy

I’ll serve You just the same

Here I am Lord, send me

On the mountain or the valley

I will choose to praise

Here I am Lord, send me

CHORUS

If I’m known by how I love

Let my life reflect how much I love You

I love You

And before You even ask

Oh my answer will be yes

‘Cause I love You

Oh I love You

VERSE 3

If the truth cuts like an arrow

I will say it anyway

‘Cause here I am Lord, send me

If it’s means that they’ll reject me

Lord I will still obey

‘Cause here I am Lord, send me

VERSE 4

When I’m standing in Your glory

I’ll be glad I chose to say

Here I am Lord, send me

Well done good and faithful

I live to hear You say

Here I am Lord, send me

TAG

Here I am Lord, send me

Here I am Lord, send me

SPONTANEOUS

Oh how I love You

With everything

With all my dreams, all my hopes

How I love You

You can have it all, You can have it all

You can have it all

What I have I give You God

Be it unto me according to Your word

February is Black History Month

February is Black History Month. The annual celebration of achievements by African Americans and a time for recognizing their central role in U.S. history can trace its origins to 1926, when a black scholar named Carter G. Woodson launched a week-long campaign to focus national attention on the contributions of black people on American society. Submitted photo
