The people are speaking

There's not much doubt that most Morgan County residents oppose a new U.S. 522 being a toll road. Jim Dupont told us last week that he had collected nearly 1,600 signatures against it – and his petitions aren't the only ones out there.

Do you think that's enough to show the Division of Highways what the community sentiment is?

We're still wondering why local elected officials have been so silent on the subject.
