DRIGGS Grand Targhee Resort has made the early decision to cancel both their summer music concerts for the 2021 season based on the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Targhee Marketing Director Jennie White said Wednesday afternoon that the resort wanted to “play it safe” in light of new COVID-19 virus strains emerging and the pace of the vaccine rollout.
“We’re playing it safe and not playing into large crowds,” White said. “I think it is the responsible thing to do this summer where we are now living in the world of COVID.
Is this progress? I HAVE just finished reading the D&S Times (Jan 8) and came across the article on the proposed business park on the northern edge of Northallerton. Whilst I approve of forward planning in most public ventures, with this proposed plan I am at a loss with regard to the lack of proposed vehicular infrastructure management. As things stand, the northern link roads avoiding the troublesome frequent – but necessary – level crossing closures seem to be putting even greater strain on the East Road traffic flow. There are four pedestrian traffic-light controlled crossings at the most congested part of our town’s roads, none of which appear to be synchronised.
