A bump in the road

Ada working to smooth out those manhole nuisances

By Monty Siekerman
In life, everyone has "bumps in the road," some large, some small.

You do your best to contend with misfortune. Ada "bumps in the road" are being fixed this week with manholes smoothed out. Some things are fixable.

Ada saw more than the usual road repair this year with blacktop being applied in many places in town.

The manholes have become more of a nuisance for drivers since, in many cases, the blacktop is now higher than the manholes. So, workmen are in town this week to smooth out the pesky dips in the road.

Drivers will have less dodging to do, and nearby residents won't be bothered by the constant thump, thump of tires falling into manholes.
