Summary
A 40-day road closure has rerouted heavy traffic, including dump trucks, through residential streets with kids, near-misses and confusion. Residents said the only notice was a sign reading "June 1" and demanded immediate fixes like staggering stop signs or alternate routes. The mayor committed to Public Works contacting a neighborhood point person the next morning.
