Faraday Allows Vistanians To Drive Right In

by The Editors on October 5, 2007

21 17 1410 4 07BIt’s going to get a whole lot easier for people from Vista to invade Carlsbadistan as Faraday Avenue finally opens to through traffic today after a “grand opening ceremony” at 11 AM, according to the North County Times.

The long-awaited, $16 million road extension will give drivers a straight shot from the western edge of Vista city limits at Melrose Drive to Orion Way in Carlsbad. It will provide a direct east-west connection between the two cities’ business parks. . . “It’s a big deal for the North County transit system,” Carlsbad Mayor Bud Lewis said Thursday.

While City officials seem ecstatic with this transit development to us it’s just one more bridge over the moat that for years offered us protection from Vista. Guess the only good thing is that Faraday doesn’t really connect to the beach. When Cannon opens all the way to Vista, then we’ll really be in trouble.
