Recently I needed to shop at the Dollar Market store on Court Street in Middlebury. I was headed north and pulled over into the lane where I could enter the store, but traffic was so heavy I could not hold cars back, so I went to the light, turned left, up the road to turn around and back to the light to turn right into the store’s parking lot.

All the time I am thinking, “Why oh why is that second opening to the store blocked off?”

When inquiring I discovered that the “powers that be” of the town decided it was dangerous. I was puzzled because it is much more dangerous to try to pull out into traffic than to have an exit or entrance where the light can help motorists safely.

I would like to see the selectpersons please open that area before we have a serious accident. We are grateful for that store and want to safely be able to enter and exit.
