Chairman Smith said he saw
a Road and Bridge employee and told them they

Meadow Creek Road
project.

work along Deep Creek Loop and whether the
problem will be corrected or patched. The slough
that occurred on Lion’s
Den Road
will be worked into the program as well,
according to Mr. Arthur.
Those present talked about
the Deep Creek Loop project. Mr. Gutshall really
wanted the approach changed at the junction of
Deep Creek Loop and Highway 95, according to Mr.
Arthur. Commissioners discussed requests they
have made to lower the speed limits on Highway
95 heading north and south at Three Mile and at
Highway 95 near the golf course. Mr. Arthur
spoke of the number of near miss accidents that
aren’t taken into account. It was said it’s
almost as if there needs to be a large accident
to justify changing the speed limit.
Mr. Arthur said another
hazardous area are the large trucks that park
near the highway at the Three Mile Gas Station
as it makes it hard for cars to see the other
lanes. Mr. Arthur said the seal coating has been
done. 1.3 miles of Highland Flats Road has been
seal coated.

Arthur discussed the condition of various roads.
