Logan Wins Eighth Straight Auto Club Traffic Safety Citation
Logan is set to receive the Automobile Club of America safety citation for the eighth consecutive year, credited to an active traffic program. Chief Roy Kelch recalls 1949 when Logan lacked a program despite no traffic deaths, noting improvements in parking, pedestrian safety, school talks, and public information efforts. Persistent issues include antiquated traffic lights and traffic blind spots due to hills and curves, with updates planned at an estimated cost of 35,000 dollars.
