The city has just started building a new round-a-bout off of University between the Kroger and McLarty Rd (that's near where the McDonald's is at). They're saying it'll take 18 months (WTF??) to complete it.

So, next time you guys are in Oxford, just be aware. Not sure why it'll take 18 months to build a round-a-bout - the folks in this city should be experts in building them at this point.

I see my constant complaining about the highway 6 & Chucky Mullins exit to match the highway 6 & old taylor road exit have once again gone unfounded as they build a roundabout elsewhere in the city.

I had to go to the library to get some books earlier.. traffic was already backed up in front of obys.. which I was craving and was the next stop.. decided I didn’t wanna deal with the traffic and went to proud Larry’s instead

Guess I’ll be going to Walmart for groceries for awhile .

I’d never heard of that place until I saw a rendering of one of their other stores .. I was blown away.. resembles a Publix to me . We do absolutely need another option .

That intersection sucks and this is needed, but holy hell that construction is going to be hell. Go through that every day.

I live in a subdivision off of 30 right outside the city limits, so it'll be very convenient for me when it gets built.

Hahaha no doubt I’m the very least connected in this group as I’m not an alumni at all.

In the new commercial neighborhood off of 30 - where they built the back to back to back roundabouts.
