The Branson Landing?? Where should I start? How about I start with ” whos stupid idea was this”?
I have been a part of this community since 1966. What has our town become?
The Branson Landing is one of the most horrible things that could of happened to Branson! The traffic is already worse than it has ever been in the downtown area.
Bransons history has been pretty much thrown out the back door as if it were trash! The downtown area is where Bransons history really begins. Now this family vacation area is taking on a city like downtown area.
City officials say that the landing will bring more people to the area and make our tourist season last longer and possibly year round. I doubt this is going to happen, but lets just say for argument sake that it does. Branson can not even deal with the traffic problem we have now, so how are we going to deal with itif this does happen. In my opinion, we should have taken care of the traffic issues we have now, before bringing something in that officials say will bring more vacationers. Further more.. what a terrible place to put this new development. It tells me that city officials are more worried about money than they are our community.
The round-a-bout… Another stupid idea. I have seen so many close accidents there it isnt funny. traffic still builds up through and beyond the round-a-bout. I have seen 3 times now people flip[ping the number 1 finger at each and once 2 people almost got out of there vehicles to fight each other.
In closing, My family and I will not be doing business at any of the branson landing stores and my children have been told if I find out they have been down there, they are grounded.
We have also told vacationers that ask us about the landing that it is No place to go shop and that it is not organized at all in the traffic area.
I have already talked 4 families out of coming to branson because of the landing. I have talked to 2 families that said they will not come back to branson because of it as they come here for family entertainment, and that is gone now.
These are my outlooks on the landing and i thank you for taking the time to read my complaints. Daryl Branson
