Resurfacing of US 160 from Cowley County through Elk to Montgomery County next year probably means no super 2 revamp for at least another twenty years, if then. Sure would like to see an upgrade.
if the counties would up grade some back roads it would take a lot of pressure off the main hiways.There is evidence there usetobe a road from Elk Falls to Longton,its about gone now.If there was a paved road from Sedan to Longton to the Buxton road we would take a lot of traffic off 160 &99.It would be a way to get tourist here.Scenic routes are a way of traveling.
A lot of " used to be paved" roads. In counties, and cities.
99 highway has many , many rollovers. And is worse after the resurfacing. Much more dangerous than 160.
that's why we wear the tires off the pickup and use the rock shard roads.
Better than mud.
thank goodness we finally have mud(.Meaning nothing more than we've had moisture)
