I was kind  of surprised to see Maggie Hassan’s  defense of  the paving project proposed with  stimulus monies. You might have missed it in the paper. A letter to the editor  last week or so. Many have remarked to me that the road surface look fine. I agree. It just seems to be project with no  real snap to  it. It would be  better to fix Route 101. The fix I propose is the  the deadly hill before the Route  101, Route 95 exit, eastbound. I have mentioned it before  and yesterday I saw fresh skid marks  at the crest. Once you  pass over 111 you can really  floor it as there are no places for radar, until  you crest that hill. Then you are  possibly confronted by  a line of  cars exiting to 95 or  a Hampton/ State  Police  squad parked down at the  bottom  of  the hill.  Its that   imminent  rear end accident, or whopping ticket that produces the skids. The DOT spokesman  has said that the hill was  a product of no more money  when they  finished that stretch. Instead of paving the DOT should do  something to  prevent   what could  be a horrific accident. We have been lucky . Oh  by the way  the ramp to 95 , the inside, on the grass. It’s littered with beer bottles. The guy  or gal bearing down on you  stopped in  line over the crest could be one of the bottle tossers. He or she  also could be texting, talking on their cell,  adjusting their GPS or  simply unfamiliar with  the area.

Make sure you exercise caution   when approaching that hill. The sign  I once asked for warning people of the  danger has not been deployed since the last time  it appeared. In lieu of  fixing this  oversight in highway  design the sign should be redeployed.
