Randolph Committee Protests Change to State Highway 10
A Randolph committee led by Tudges GC Brown and others traveled to Jefferson City to present a formal protest to the state highway chief engineer regarding proposed rerouting of State Highway No. 10. They argue the change would injure local residents, fail to improve safety, and urge alternatives such as an underground crossing near Powhatan mine and improved rail crossings. The group calls for careful study of connections and road alignments between Mayelle, Flintsville, Huntsville, and Clifton Hill, with continued consideration of parallel routes and crossings.
