Waiting For Business
Bookshop Closed Today ~ Reopening on Wednesday

Located on Hwy 3 & Cayuga Street, The Neat L'l Bookshop is affected by the exciting revitalization of the village.  The streets and sidewalks are torn up to the extent that customer parking is difficult if not impossible.  Yesterday the long-awaited bridge opened; however, with only one lane using STOP and SLOW sign-crew,  traffic, including trucks, transports, large industrial equipment, farming equipment and every imaginable thing on wheels, there was a constant back-up at the traffic light at our corner.  Traffic merged from Cayuga Street, the business section. 
Travellers ~ most ~ were understanding; however, it was easy to see from our window that one traffic officer at the light could have kept traffic flowing comfortably ~ preventing the  jammed conditions on Hwy 3.  Eastbound vehicles crossing the new-bridge after being stopped for Westbound traffic, eventually rushed over the new bridge only to be stopped abruptly again at the light ~ most times unnecessarily.

Good luck, Cayuga, today.  Welcome visitors.  We will reopen on Wednesday, June 25.  Thank you for your understanding. ~ John & Lorna
