Letter: Bridge to Lindsey

Billy Joe Fudge writes:
Now all we need is an elevated catwalk/bike path from Lindsey Hill across Town Branch to Tommy Phelps' car lot next door whereby Lindsey Students can access the Downtown commerce center without braking a sweat. I'm willing to bet that Lindsey Wilson and our city and county governments could find a grant or grants to fund a forward thinking project such as this. --BJF
