One thought on “City of Half Moon Bay Kelly Ave. Intersection Improvement Project at Pilarcitos Ave. and Alsace Lorraine Ave.

  1. And Maz and the City saves the day and possibly a life at the corner of Alsace Lorraine and Kelly. Thank you dearly.

    I got tired of throwing little red rubber kids balls out in the street in front of people who would blow that stop sign going 40 miles an hour or so. Chasing folks down at the State Park and telling them people have died on that street when people blow stop signs got annoying as well.

    Again, thank you Maz and the City of Half Moon Bay public works for listening to our pleas and concerns. Maybe we can get a cigarette butt tank or two on Kelly as well so those healthy cigarette butts don’t make it into giant storm drains and out in the waves while we’re surfing.

    Love me a Half Moon Bay when we all work together 🙂
