A Friendly Request from The Old Filling Station ❤️
As many of you know, the bridge construction in town has created some frustrating traffic delays. We completely understand that everyone is trying to get where they need to go as quickly as possible.
However, we’ve noticed an increasing number of vehicles using our parking lot as a shortcut to avoid the traffic.
We kindly ask that you please refrain from cutting through our lot.
Even when we put our traffic cones out to block off the entrance to the parking lot, we see many people driving over the sidewalks to get through - just to miss the traffic light.
Not only is the extra traffic damaging the work we’ve recently put into improving our parking lot, but more importantly, it has created several dangerous situations involving our customers—including families and small children walking to and from the restaurant. We’ve already had multiple close calls, and the safety of our guests will always come first.
We know we can’t completely stop people from doing it, but we’re asking our community to please be respectful of our property and, most importantly, the people visiting our restaurant.
Thank you for your understanding, your kindness, and for helping us keep The Old Filling Station a safe place for everyone.
We truly appreciate this community. ❤️
