White Way project aims to mark route to Des Moines
A new good roads plan for the River to River route proposes painting telephone poles white along the Southern Route from Wiota to Anita and Des Moines. Atlantic would supply an auto to start painting midway to Wiota, with Wiota and Anita residents continuing the effort toward Des Moines. The northern division already uses signs, but boosters of the southern route favor pole painting for visibility day and night.
