The interchange of US-31 and Napier Avenue is kinda a double-gap

on the Y-axis (US-31), we have a freeway to the south, and an incomplete freeway that is expected to be complete in the future to the north

and on the X-axis (Napier Avenue), we got what is the temporary US-31 west of the interchange, and to the east, we got a county-maintained roadway that turns into a state highway at the county line. So in essence, M-152 has a gap of "highway number zone" going toward US-31.

To summarize, the US-31 freeway has an incomplete segment that isn't finished that cars can't drive to yet, but Napier Avenue continues to the east, but simply has no highway number east of the interchange.

is this wild or what?

Walking trails at Sarett

We're doing a lot more daily walks. The neighborhood walk has started to get a bit boring. Are the trails at Sarett still open? How busy are they during weekdays?

Cool things I may not know about?

So I just moved here last week, I am from the area (baroda) so I am relatively familiar with the big stuff. Any cool things I may not know about though?

I swear the road crew does not care about side roads at all

I went to go out earlier and pipestone and m 139 and stuff perfectly fine, but down on side streets, and where I live. No plow at all, I had to push my car to get it unstuck but yet all these other roads are clear. I know they need to plow those first, but all day didn’t see one plow

Halloween Plans

Hello! My partner and I recently moved in and we were wondering if there's anything going on in the area today to celebrate Halloween. We would go trick or treating, but we forgot to get costumes and we have no kids. SO it would be weird.

Thanks!

Coming Home to Dowagiac

I understand that Dowagiac is a bit aways from Benton Harbor but I didnt see a closer sub to post in. If its not allowed mods please remove. To start- I grew up in the area and left at age 11 but am very fortunate enough to have saved enough to come visit for the first time in 13 years. I already know Im going to be flooded with memories from home but need some help with ideas to entertain my kiddo in between visiting family. Like first question- Is there a good reliable car rental place that wont screw me up the ass? What in the area would you recommend for a single mom with a 4yo kiddo? Would you happen to know if they offer to rent a car seat? Any good local eats around about the area that you would wholeheartedly recommend? (I have it in mind to hike it to the Main Street Ice Cream shop regardless of anything else) What kind of cell service works up there? At all?

Thank you so much for your time!!!! CHEERS!

Why are hotels sold out?

I have a bunch of out of town guests coming in this weekend, and finding hotels has been really tough. What is soaking up all the rooms? There's no ND football, which was my first thought. I see from a previous post that this is common this summer, without anything like Venetian driving it.

D&D/Pathfinder group, looking to play

Me and a buddy are looking to join or create a D&D or Pathfinder gaming group. We're looking to be players with someone else playing DM. The other guy is pretty experienced and has run some campaigns as a DM and I'm fairly new but have some experience. We're actually in Berrien Springs but willing to do a little driving, or you're welcome to come here, so if you're in the area PM me and let's set something up. If you don't have a DM but want to be in a group you can join us in our search! You can consider this a permanent looking because I'll update it if we find a group.

Phone and cable providers in the area

Hi /r/BH.

I'm going to be moving up to the area (near South Haven) next month and I need some info on comms providers.

I'm currently with T-Mobile for my cell phone but their coverage map looks spotty at best. I don't really want to go with Verizon so do you know of any alternatives which will give good service?

I will be working from home so I need good internet. High speed and uptime. I want to avoid Comcast but can't find anything other than ADSL services online. Any local suggestions there?

Thanks all!
