\t\t\t\t\"\"<\/a>Stapleton residents have strong feelings about Havana and Iola becoming through streets and connecting Stapleton directly to Aurora. Most are concerned with increased traffic, and drivers not obeying speed limits or being sensitive to the fact that lots of small children and dogs roam free in Stapleton. \u201cHow much closer can they really make Stapleton and Aurora,\u201d asks angry resident Justin Marion. \u201cIs it that big of a deal to go around and take the Bluff Lake route? It\u2019s ridiculous.\u201d\n\nAurora residents are excited about the new option to get back to Aurora. \u201cI always end up going up Havana St.,\u201d says Aurora resident Joni Meeter. “Then, I turn around and come right back down that one way street the wrong way every time. Now, I won\u2019t have to look for signs and can just keep going straight home to Aurora.\u201d Other Aurorans are seeing another benefit to the new access back home. \u201cWhen you’re getting chased by the police, it is always nice to have options to get away,\u201d said anonymous Aurora resident. \u201cRight now, it’s kind of limited.\u201d\nOther Aurorans agreed. \u201cI hate staying on the highway,\u201d says another resident. \u201cThat\u2019s easy for cops to track. Now, you can take the Havana exit, turn the lights off, speed through Stapleton to Aurora and be home safe and sound. Even if they do see you, they probably aren\u2019t allowed to go on a high speed chase through Stapleton.\u201d\nThe through street will continue to cause controversy but should be completed in the next six months. \u201cI feel like my property values just went down 40%,\u201d said Marion. \u201cEastbridge went from having a school and a town center to becoming an annex to Aurora. Unbelievable.\u201d ]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
