Phoenix Q&A

We live in Cave Creek and have been going back & forth to St. Joe's (5th Ave & Thomas) and find that when heading north, the on ramp from Thomas onto the 51 can be rather more hectic than we're comfortable with. We're looking for alternative routes to get onto the 51 northbound from St. Joe's.

I'm heading to work from the north side and saw a few state troopers blocking the road, but I don't know what's going on. Can anyone tell me why the freeway is closed?

I own a bike rental in Phoenix and I've noticed the city has started replacing crosswalks with zebra crossings on McDowell Rd. I'm wondering if this is a new policy for pedestrian crossings in Phoenix.

I've been experiencing issues with PBS channels on my TV in Glendale. The channels are always delayed or have artifacts, and it's only PBS that's affected. I've checked my antenna and it's working fine.

I've been a member of Costco for years and have always noticed that their gas prices are lower than other stations. However, in the past few weeks, I've noticed that their prices are the same as many other gas stations. I've checked at the Chandler and Gilbert locations and it's not just a one-time thing. Has anyone else experienced this?

I own a bike rental in Phoenix and I'm worried about the safety of my customers and the general public. The city closed the Northside sidewalk between 5th Ave and 7th Ave on Van Buren St, but left a huge hole in the middle of the only Southside sidewalk. It's unavoidable that people will get hurt or their bikes will get damaged if they try to navigate this situation. I've already had a bike tire popped.

I'm getting my car tinted and I'm deciding between 5% and 15% for the side windows, and I'm wondering if I should do the windshield between 20-30%.

I've been noticing the terminal numbering system at Sky Harbor Airport is outdated and doesn't make sense anymore. It's been this way for years, and I'm wondering if we're going to officially rename these terminals. More suitable names would be West, Central, East terminals or even West, McCain, Goldwater. I've heard people complaining about it, but I'm not sure if it's a big deal or if there are any plans to change it.

Driving eastbound on the 101 in the rain is terrifying because the lane lines disappear on the wet pavement. I end up following the car in front and hoping they can see them. What kind of paint are they using that vanishes when wet?
