There are too many vehicles trying to

OQ=it's just awful So V-Dot came up with three options
to fix the problem.
The first two would have extended
Wonju Street all the way to Brandon

million dollars.
This would have forced the state to
buy and demolish several homes and
businesses.

less controversial and expensive
option.

V-Dot will slightly widen Colonial
Avenue in front of Towers Mall. The
state will also restrict left hand
access to and from Colonial onto 23rd,
as well as adjust the timing of the
traffic signals.
Finally, V-Dot will install a traffic
light at the intersection of 23rd

improve the traffic flow?

But, despite his efforts, Miami

Clemson led by eight at halftime

Floyd Co. vs. Gate City Tonight, the entire town of Floyd
made the trek to Richmond to the VCU
Seigel Center and see if the Buffs
advance to the championship game and
deliver a little payback to Gate City -
the team that ended their season last
year.
Freshman Brittany Avancini shows
no fear early in this one as Floyd
jumped out to a 9-to-3 lead to open the
game.
But the Gate City eased back into
the game and with the help of Brittany
Rogers the Lady Blue Devils were able
to tie it by the end of the first
quarter.
Floyd would have to play from
behind the rest of the way - Adrienne
Womack makes a nice move in the paint,
but Floyd trailed by 8 at the half and
by eight heading to the fourth quarter.
*CG final Floyd Co. Floyd, which doesn't have a
