County Roads Aim for Higher Weight, Amid Budget Gaps
County Judge L D Pelsheim says the commission is doing a wonderful job but funds limit road expansion to about 1 000 dollars per mile, far below state costs. Coos County debates a southern coastal region underprivileged status and outlines a highway council program including upgrades to Coos Bay Coquille road, Cape Arago, a Bullards bridge, and a bridge to replace the Enegren ferry.
