A plan by the South Dakota Department of Transportation to change lanes on some highways in Bon Homme County is getting attention and opposition.

The plan that would change some four lane segments of Highway Fifty near Tabor and Tyndall to two lanes with a turning lane is causing the concern.

Former legislator Frank Kloucek of Scotland says they are working on a petition drive…

 

Kloucek says citizens at a public meeting last week had some other suggestions for the highway…

 

Kloucek says they only have this week to get petition signatures…

 

Kloucek says they will take their case and petitions to the Transportation Commission.
