One Way Rural Roads Considered by Iowa Officials
State Safety Commissioner Carl Pesch seeks county interest in testing one way on secondary Iowa roads after 216 deaths on the system last year. If enough counties show interest, a trial county will be chosen based on accident rates and road patterns. farmers face longer trips. The idea stems from Kenneth Stonex of Milford Michigan who argues one way streets improve flow and reduce crashes, while costs of extra travel are less than avoided accident costs. Also notes political speculation including Ray Bailey and Dayton Countryman as possible candidates for Congress, with Lt Gov run by David Shaff tentatively considered.
