[Vision2020] North-Central Idaho Corridor Studies

[deb]

Ain't that the truth! And Ken Helm, who told me the Hywy 95 passing lane has been a "pet project for a decade", won't even bother to listen. He just talks right over any questions or concerns..... So, we get the expensive and stupid "deer alert" signal to tell people to slow down whilst the new passing lane, with its' Lewis Road danger, ends where it meets the passing lane on the North side of the Hill. They just happen to meet at the slickest spot on the mountain, and in winter that spot has ice 24/7. Then, immediately north of that accident-in- progress, there is a left turn into the Phillips Farm County Park....Great planning....Surveying went well, but noticing how the road is used and by whom seems to have been beyond the scope of the brief.

  This is a fool's errand.

  I attended the last one this summer.  I expressed a number of concerns to Ken Helm.  I was then told that I must submit my comments in writing for them to really be considered.

  Further, Jim Carpenter, on a tour with a very concerned Rep. Tom Trai and I, promised certain things would be done this summer about two hazardous situations.  As far as I can see, nothing has been done.  In fact, because of the way a work-in-progress came about, one site (US 95 at Lewis Rd) is now even more hazardous.
