Personal Commentary

After making several medical trips back and forth to Campbellsville, I have concerns that Hiway 55 is dangerous to travel now and will be super dangerous when completed.

Cutting a foot off of the width of each lane is ridiculous.



We also have a guardrail that the passenger could spit on or grab from their seat in the car!

I have no knowledge who makes these design decisions but strongly feel it should be looked into.

Coming into Columbia at the very end of the road work is a bump that could damage the front end of a vehicle. If this is not repaired, car damage could be unrepairable.

Do we really need this pitiful, narrow three lane patch of hiway?

I think it would have been better to have left it alone.

Who made the decision to cut the width of the lanes?

Who do we complain to?

I remain concerned.
