Supporters of a truck bypass around Yankton presented over seven hundred fifty petition signatures to state Department of Transportation officials at a meeting in Tyndall this week.

Former legislator Frank Kloucek of Scotland says they want the D.O.T. to be aware of the interest in a bypass…

 

Kloucek says they D.O.T. doesn’t have the bypass on the state plan now…

 

Kloucek says they are looking for consensus on the bypass idea…

 

A study was done in 2001 that looked at the possibility of a bypass from Highway 50 east of Yankton to Highway 81 north of Yankton.
