County mulls flashing stop-sign beacons on 458 at 59
County Public Works Director Keith Browning says KDOT must decide on installing beacon lights at County Road 458 and U S 59. He notes the new U S 59 freeway opening this fall with a Route 458 interchange should greatly improve safety, making KDOT unlikely to install beacons now. For questions, call 832-7297 or email soundoff ljworld.com.
