Bob Barnes: Winter does not count against contractor's time LETTERS and FEEDBACK Ed,: If my memory is correct the contractor had 90 days to complete the construction of the new bridge. However, the state does not include any days during the months of December, January or Feburary. The state does not feel that there are enough favorable working condition days during these months.

Bridge situation hits E80 travelers in pocket, too LETTERS and FEEDBACK To ColumbiaMagazine.com: Any info on the completion of the E80 Bridge would be great.Not only does it add time to any commute into town. it also hits all E80 travelers in the pocket with gas well above $3.00 a gallon. Green Hills has become quite dangerous as well. There seems to be weekly traffic accidents there and I've had some close calls myself. I think the local government should give the public an update on the situation. Our tax dollars are paying for the work, or lack there of. We deserve an answer.. s/Shannon Sexton 2008-01-06 18:15:20 | Comments | Printable version
Feedback on Scenic Adair County In Visible Differences LETTERS and FEEDBACK To Pen at ColumbiaMagazine.com: This is one of my favorite spots. If you drive the opposite way, towards 55, the view is spectacular. The grass is strikingly green, and with the pastures all outlined by wooden fence, it reminds me of rural England. Much like a scene out of James Herriot's All Creatures Great and Small series. s/Heather Evans Thanks.

Highway 80 Bridge: Does anyone know latest? LETTERS and FEEDBACK Ed: I have been hearing talk that the new bridge on HWY 80, which was first scheduled to open by January 08, has now been moved out to April 08, and also have heard that all construction has now stopped due to state budget issues. Would there be any way that you could find out if any of these are facts, and where do we need to address our issues if they are true. Thank you Phillip Dunbar Thanks. Everyone is asking about progress on the bridge. It would sound unthinkable for that project to have any delays. Right now having the bridge there may be the biggest road problem, and safety concern in the county. The situation is really causing hardships.

COF: On Egypt and Points Beyond LETTERS and FEEDBACK To ColumbiaMagazine.com Guess you'd just have to live here to understand.Because of our ways, God speaks to us all the time; just like the recalcitrant child who gets all the attention! So far though, his counsel doesn't seem to have had much effect. Either that or folks up this way are scared that if they were to change their ways too much, maybe God wouldn't keep trying to bribe them to be better!
