I think Tech/Ruston/Biz Association should have busses. Get the smaller busses (Shreveport has a lot running around instead of the large busses). I think 3/4 busses would be plenty. During the day the routes would be from residential/JAS/other extreme parking lots to areas of campus (with 1 going to businesses). At night, the could go from residential to businesses (with 1 going around campus). On gameday, the busses could be used to shuttle from campus parking to JAS.
Yes, I asked one of the partners and they are building a truck stop. They are still negotiating with the different fuel providers to see who comes forward with the best deal. That corner really looks different as they are taking down the trees. Ruston is really changing. You drive around town and there are TONS of projects and improvements going on.
What is going in by Hot Rod? Corner of 33 and Trade Drive. It’s been a lot of things over the years. Or are they just remodeling?
Was told today a Popeye’s will be built and not a new McDonald’s. Was a pretty reliable source (not that you are not), so do you know which is correct? Had been talking just the other day with people who live up 33 and said all we needed was a chicken place—not that we can’t make it to Cane’s—since we have pizza, Mexican, bbq, roast beef, sonic burgers, ZBuffet, fish, doughnuts, log cabin, portico, breakfast, etc.
Is something moving into the old Alpine building on Hwy. 80? There was a lot of activity there today.
