High Court Upholds Right To Build Rogers Pass Road
The High Court rules the state highway board has authority to construct the Rogers Pass road, overturning a district order that barred awarding a contract. Justice Claude Morris writes the legislature did not intend to cede highway powers to another state agency and asserts the commission's mandate aligns with state construction plans. The ruling remands to show cause why a prior restraining order should not be made permanent, amid objections that the project would be a waste of money and duplicate parallel routes.
