Half Day Road
Bruce Foster
We moderate riders spend a lot of time waiting to cross Half Day Road. What's the origin of that name? There is no town named Half Day either!

The answer to that question, and much more, was pulled together by WBEZ's Curious City:

Half Day Road and the Origins of a Semantic Slip-up

Bruce,

Thanks for sharing. Interesting that the story also explains the origin of Aptakisic Rd. I leave it to any other curious bike riders to listen and find the answer.
