The Daily news has an article online about this -

http://www.thedailynews.cc/main.asp...

Boiled down, there's a new traffic light at the intersection of M57 and M66 that automatically detects cars approaching, and will switch to "green" at their approach. "Only" costs $1000 more per light, only good in rural areas where the lights go to "flash" at night, and oh yeah only works at night,...but supposed to last longer, cost less to operate, lower maintenance cost.

These lights are good...but plowing the roads for winter would be better. MDOT in charge of both. Why is there money for lights, but not roads?

Well don't scratch another hole in yer head thinkin bout this one...you already answered yer own question:
"...but supposed to last longer, cost less to operate, lower maintenance cost."
This will pay for itself soon enough; The Fuel cost, vehicle maintenance(esp.W/ MI roads), and man-hours on payroll are ongoing.
Duh

Daily Horoscope for May 22

Sagittarius

It's important to be discriminating about what you say and believe today. That's because communications are rather strange, with people saying or doing odd things and plenty of scope for crossed wires. Be very careful if you're attending to important details because for some reason your brain may switch off at the vital moment, leaving you prone to making mistakes or losing track of what you're doing. Try to double-check anything important tomorrow when your brain is back in gear.
