I would like to offer a heartfelt “thank you” to several courteous drivers on FM 967 lately. As you know this road is being widened and, for some dubious reason has a 50-mph speed limit posted on it. The speed, plus construction, makes it very difficult for those of us who live in the subdivisions along 967 to enter the traffic whizzing by. On more than one occasion this past week, a driver west-bound on FM 967 has stopped to allow a string of cars on Garlic Creek Rd. entry to that busy road.

With parents driving children to Elm Grove Elementary adding to the normal heavy traffic on 967 and 1626, getting out of subdivisions can be quite frustrating. I feel a sincere “thanks” is the least I can say to the drivers who illustrated the courtesy I mentioned.
