U.S. 30 East

Editor, Times-Union:
The ProPEL U.S. 30 East study is not just commendable; it's necessary. With a staggering 2,717 accidents in four years on this corridor alone, the safety concern is undeniable. As a conservative, I advocate for responsible government spending – and what could be more responsible than ensuring the safety of our citizens?
U.S. 30 isn’t just a road; it's an economic lifeline connecting our communities. Every accident disrupts this flow, hurting local businesses and costing taxpayers more in emergency services and infrastructure repairs. Investing in this study now can save money in the long run.
The public has spoken, with safety and access topping their concerns. It's high time we address these issues head-on. A safer U.S. 30 benefits all, from daily commuters to local businesses.
In short, let's back this study fully. It's a fiscally sound move towards a safer, more prosperous community.
