Another DIY skateboard park is no more thanks to the wonderful work of the California Department of Transportation. This one (snatch) in San Diego was off Rancho Mission Road near Qualcomm Stadium according to a story on Fox 5.
“We were notified recently of a skate park that was built with wood and concrete in one of the drainage canals that parallels Interstate 8,” said Caltrans spokesman Ed Cartagena. “Accidents can happen, so in terms of exposure to liability, we try to limit that by making certain locations illegal to place things.”
Nice to know that in this California State budget crisis that CalTrans has more than enough money to destroy skateparks up and down the Golden State. Someone’s priorities are obviously confused.
