Lancaster's singing road

Lancaster's musical road
I’d love to think that Lancaster has the nation's only singing road. Whether or not we do, it was a joy to drive across the highway that Honda’s sound engineers’ scored. As we drove 50 miles an hour along Avenue K just west of 60th street, the tires began to hum the William Tell Overture. That’s what my husband heard. What did I hear? Ode to Joy. Whatever it was, it was an absolute hoot to experience a song along our roads. Why can’t all highways be musical?
Just two weeks after writing this, Lancaster City officials paved over our little piece of joy. It was becoming such a draw for people all over Southern California. It even got attention from BBC international.
What a shame that the city doesn't realize that tourists bring in money to the restaurants and hotels.
We really lost out.
