Whats the latest on the taxi's up north? It's been more then 2 weeks.

I am going to be back at my place in a week, hope they are gone by then.

Rain will change the whole situation....and its raining now.
Could be all moot if we have a good rain.

Excellent!!

Just spent last week @ 2-3 miles north of the cut, and went to town nearly every day for either lunch or dinner via my golf cart. I didn't encounter taxi's much, maybe 1 or max of 2 each way. IMO, only one taxi was driving a bit fast when he passed me; all others drove slow/moved over when passing. What I encountered a lot of (especially during the day) were pick up trucks. All seemed to drive respectful, but the dust they threw up kinda sucked for me. I probably won't be back to visit for a few years; I really cannot imagine what the road north will be like by then...

How is the road north of the bridge holding up?

And why are pickup trucks coming across the bridge? I thought the new policy was just for taxis!

The damn flood gate was opened that's why

Boooo

We were there for 3 weeks and only saw a couple of taxis. The trucks we encountered were the guys working on the power lines. Even though I'm not excited about the increased traffic, we didn't see anyone driving fast or recklessly. We talked to a couple of taxi drivers in town, and they think the rates will prevent many taxis from making the trip north. That and the condition of the roads when the rain starts!
