Four 3-inch-thick, concrete-filled steel pipes have been sunk in cement across the road between 890 and 892 Honeysuckle, the latest chapter in a long-standing neighborhood feud. The barrier forces residents of the southern end of Honeysuckle to use another street and a longer way to get to Preston Highway. The northern end of Honeysuckle, which is a short street in the old Edgewood subdivision off Preston Highway is privately owned by 28 lot owners. The area was annexed by the City of Louisville last November But, according to City Works Director W. V.

Sanders said last night that he understood from police who Investigated the roadblock that it was erected legally. "Many of the residents along the street have signed their willingness to open the street for public use, but I don't know just what the law says on the matter," Sanders said. He has asked acting City Law Director W. E. Berry to look into legal aspects of the case with an eye toward getting the street reopened.

Says Street Had Become A Race Track A resident of Honeysuckle Way who asked that her name not be used told a reporter that the street "had become a race track and we were worried about our children." But six other residents said they had no idea why the barrier was erected. It was put up about 4:30 p.m. yesterday. In May, 1955, the same thing happened after a drainage ditch which had separated Honeysuckle at the spot where the barrier now stands was filled and a culvert was put there. Residents of the north end blocked the street because it had become a short cut to Preston Highway.

A suit was filed in Circuit Court asking that the culvert be removed and the street kept separated. In November, 1955, Circuit Judge Macaulay L.
