Knightville panel backs plan for two-way traffic

SOUTH PORTLAND — The Knightville Traffic Committee has endorsed a compromise plan to restore two-way traffic to downtown Ocean Street. Yet even committee members who support the plan question whether it would actually work and say they are unable to back it wholeheartedly. The plan would restore a southbound lane to the block between D and E streets by removing six parallel parking spaces from the east side of Ocean Street and replacing 14 angled parking spaces on the west side with 22 perpendicular spaces. The committee considered a second option that would replace the 14 angled spaces with nine parallel spaces, creating a more traditional streetscape that also would restore two-way traffic, but would have parallel parking on both sides and eliminate five spaces on the block. But it was the compromise plan that got the most votes at a recent committee meeting, even though some members remain unconvinced. “I’m skeptical about it,” said Caroline Hendry, a Knightville resident.

By MICHAEL WAGAMAN (Associated Press) OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Nick Gordon had four hits, including his first home run in three weeks, and the Miami Marlins beat the Athletics 12-3 to end Oakland’s six-game winning streak Sunday. Josh Bell had a pair of RBI singles and Jonah Bride drove in two runs as the Marlins won for the third time in 12 games and avoided a series sweep. Miami got 14 hits and had eight players with at least one RBI, a stark difference from a day earlier when the Marlins’ bats were mostly muffled in a 20-4 loss to the A’s. “Super big,” Gordon said.
