A State Highway Department employee is praised for cutting red tape allowing rapid repaving of Broadway east lane from Irvington Gardens to Sunnyside Lane. Roadwork has hindered traffic for over a year due to apartments and storm sewer work, with hopeful plans to restore full width in weeks. A caution light at the apartment entrance is proposed, along with a flashing signal to warn Broadway traffic of the danger.
