About whether traffic avoiding tolls on the Tacoma Narrows Bridge
is adding to Belfair congestion, subject of the Nov, 9 Road
Warrior, Claudia Cornish of the state bridge office says new
traffic counts in Belfair have since been completed. “We found that
there is less than a 1 percent increase in traffic volumes on SR 3,
and that slight increase is primarily seen on Saturdays and
Sundays,” she said.
And Vietnam War hero Bruce Crandall of Manchester, got a copy of
the July 27 column discussing whether a street or road should be
named after him. Bruce wrote, “First, I wish you to know that I
would consider this a great honor. Having said that, I would also
consider it an unnecessary burden to people who live on such a

With the caring attitude that Bruce Crandall shows, it is no surprise that he is a war hero.
A new, previously un-named road needs the honor of caring his name.
“…Vietnam War hero Bruce Crandall of Manchester…”
Based on his response, it seems to me this man deserves to have a new, unnamed road named after him when one becomes available.
