Highway Panel Mends Fences In Kansas Highway Talks
State Senator Bill Morris and Transportation Secretary Horace Edwards clash eased as they push to finish a major southeast Kansas highway plan this week. The Wichita to Neodesha 100 mile stretch may shift from four lane to Super Two with passing lanes. The 19 member task force aims to finalize projects and funding, with a potential $1.3 billion final price and possible sales tax considerations. Gov. Hayden seeks a special session to review recommendations later in summer. Edwards backs preserving core projects across four regions while Morris hints at a toned down plan and a broad skeleton proposal for the Legislature.
