The first contract for reconstruction of Interstate 70 was awarded Wednesday by the Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission.

Despite bodies of evidence, Missouri moves forward with adding lanes to interstate 70 highway without any public transit infrastructure additions. We know the outcome already.

    I’m all for public transit, but this is probably one of the most car-dependent parts of the country. Who expects them to not think car when they were getting transportation funding? It’s not right, but it’s not going to be easy for them to stuff public transit in rural central Missouri and anticipate getting any return on the costs. More likely to get a bunch of angry hicks with pitchforks.
