Rt 254 Extension Plans Discussed With State Officials
County commissioners arranged a meeting with State Highway officials to review two proposals for extending Rt 254 west. One plan would extend Rt 51 northwest over new right of way costing about $1.6 million with the county paying around $400,000 for the land. The other, proposed by Commissioner Norman Thompson, would extend Rt 24 west to Baumhart Road, about a mile longer but through less valuable land. The board seeks to determine if the county can be relieved of right of way costs, making the project 100 percent state funded.
