Talk:Fairlawn, Ohio
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Where does West Market Street have 10 lanes in Fairlawn?
- I'm using my mind's eye, so this is subject to correction. It would require a very loose definition of what constitutes a lane, but perhaps the spot is the I-77 entrance/exit to West Market. If I were to stand at a certain place there, say under the bridge, and look around, I might be able to see ten lanes. They wouldn't all be at the same place, and since four of them are entrance/exit ramps, it wouldn't meet my definition of ten lanes. But if somebody wants to see ten lanes badly enough, it might satisfy them.

[edit] Lanes on Market
I looked at the county GIS maps and there are 6 lanes at 77. Also it doesn't appear that that section of road is in Fairlawn, and it is called Medina Road there.
I chose an arbitrarily large number because I knew it was quite large, and was going to correct it, if needed, on my next trip to Fairlawn. Medina Road is what OH-18 is called west of Cleveland Massillon Road, I believe.

- Could I suggest that you use a question mark in parantheses by such a value, or better yet use a vague qualifier word like 'many' in such situations? We have a lot of critics sniping at us over accuracy - it would be helpful for the overall accuracy of Wikipedia that such values be clearly flagged as uncertain or imprecise. Thanks.

Will do. I will go back to have my articles be proofread and critiqued before I post them. --UltraSkuzzi 02:00, 27 Dec 2004 (UTC)
[edit] why?
why dont copley and fairlawn just fuse to make a town almost worth mention? They could call it coplawn. of fairley. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 208.44.14.242 (talk) 22:01, 21 February 2007 (UTC).
